What a massive part of our club alan has been.
Just an absolute inspiration.
Those wembley visits over many years, and visits to murrayfield, cardiff, and twickenham will stay with me forever.
We will miss him
Like many others, spent a lot of time on his coaches over the years.
I particularly remember the trip to the south of France for the "European Cup" against St. Esteve. Coaches got delayed going down to Dover and missed the ferry. Arrived at the stadium a few minutes before the final whistle 😆
Still an enjoyable weekend - got into the changing rooms with Kurt, Emosi, Joe and Jonathan to name a few. Still love the photos from that. And a good night in Lyon.
Rest well Alan.
I was on Pat Price's coach that weekend, and thankfully we were one of the lucky ones who made it there before kick off.
I'm not sure why some of the coaches went to Dover though, the ferry we were all meant to be getting on was from Newhaven (to Dieppe).
