It's a struggle to think of anyone who is more claret & blue than Deadly, always attending the games through thick & thin beyond the sale to Lerner and that look of delight on his face at Wembley when we won the League Cup. It's poignant indeed that he's passed away just as a Holte-ender takes the reins, he brought us back from the brink of bankruptcy in the late 60's I believe.

A gentleman of the game, one of our own - RIP Sir Doug and I hope the lads do you proud vs Swansea.
