A super write up for a super fan.

If past (and current) players, managers, directors and fans had only shown a part of the enthusiasm, drive and loyalty as Zip we would be now top of the Premiership taking on Barca in Europe.

Well done Zip, looking forward to many years of the same.

Marvellous achievement by a lovely bloke. Zip's trips are one of the highlights of the week for me. This fella sent me a programme from our first game at NYS and we'd never even met back then, just chatted on MM. Shows what type of bloke he is.

The club should take him to Brighton on the team bus.

That's well over 90'000 minutes baring in mind added on time. Not to mention the friendly/reserve games.

A fantastic achievement Zippy.

As the day of that Brighton game is my 55th birthday I guess I can cross you off my party invites

If ever a statue was to be erected outside the ground then I vote for Zip..., immortalised in bronze forever.... How about that pal?

Well done Zippy, well deserved.
