Title: Phil Duffel Post by: ronnie21 on Tuesday, March 31, 2015, 13:35:00 Always thought Phil was one of the better Adver reporters, sadly he lost his wife to cancer recently and is now fundraising for a disabled pavilion for Purton Cricket Club where he helps out. His son is a county player in his age group and sadly his mum missed her son getting a century as there was no disabled access. If anybody comes across any fundraising please support it! :ty:

The Swindon Town FC's media guy, Tom, is also going to look into putting it in the community section of the programme on Saturday. :) |
