    Sad News

    Hi all, just wanted to drop by and let you know that MillHillRover has sadly passed away.

    He was a fantastic bloke, who had supported Rovers all his life. He spent a lot of time on this board and his knowledge of all things BRFC was second to none.

    There was a few of us who used to meet up with Milly prior to watching the Rovers and blow the froth off a few cold ones. Then we would meet up after the game and chat about how the game has gone. I know a few of you on here will have had lively debate with Milly down the years. I know I did.

    Russ will be so sorely missed.

    Gone but never forgotten. RIP big man.

    Hi Moony. Hope you and the family are well brother.

    Thanks for letting us know. Milly was a really nice guy. I liked him alot.
    he once called me and we had a good chat, when I was struggling. He got in contact away from the site and spent time checking I was ok. A very nice, genuine guy.

    We crossed swords a few times, which was nothing more than a healthy debate.

    A sad loss, may he rest in Peace. X
