Rest in peace Mick. Thoughts and prayers being sent out to his friends and family. 30 years is a long time to devote ones time to the club.
Let`s go and avoid relegation for the man.
Hopefully he gets a minutes silence/applause.
Pars fan.
Magpies fan.
Mens tennis fan.
Alternative rock fan.
Not a fan of much else.

Really gutted to hear this. Me and dad parked behind the ground for years and Mick always looked after us making sure Dad was as close to the entrance as possible. Sad news. RIP Mick ❤️

Sorry to bring this thread back up.
I know there were some posters from here who attended my dad’s funeral and I would like to say a massive thank you.
I was also made aware that there had been some info in the match day programmes v Livingston and Hamilton.
I didn’t know this and never buy a programme anyway, I was wondering if anyone had these programmes? I would be more than happy to buy them from you.
If anyone can help this would be appreciated.

Sorry for your loss. Pretty sure I have a programme and you`re more than welcome to it.

Cheers Rusty - that would be amazing.
I’m no entirely sure what is said in the programme. Just would like as a keepsake.
If I had known I would’ve got the programmes when at the games.

Condolences for your loss. Very few programmes are sold after the day of the match in question, so I`m fairly sure you will be able to pick up a copy of each programme containing an article about your father if you pop into the club shop.
