Small request, can anyone with decent pictures of Whits at, or en route, to Town games PM me the photos for a photo board his family are planning for his funeral? Thanks x
Not sure if this will suffice - probably not; but a favourite and an away day. |

Do you think we should put this in the main forum? The reason I ask is that as an example Brighton red had no idea about whits and was gutted to find out but had planned something already this weekend. He is not a member of the lounge and there may be others in the same boat?

I think that'd be fine, with the funeral today and people meeting up at the Merlin tomorrow as well

Been away so missed everything, no idea what happened and its none of my business to ask but bad times for anyone to pass so young.
Puts life into perspective.....

Not been on here for a while. Like others I knew Whits from following us. He was always cheerful, and ready with a quip, we didn't even know each other's real names, I'd walk into Legends bar, or a grotty northern pub, and hear, Oi, sutton. Being a fellow Newbury born supporter, we sometimes talked crap about our hometown, which was fun. RIP Whits, it's made me sad to read this bad news.

I think that is my chest in the picture (weird thing to recognise I know, more the Moles t-shirt) but I have no recollection of this. Where is it from?
Are you the girl of Asian heritage ? |

I never met Whits but he seems like a great guy, nothing but plaudits on here
So, not knowing him, would I still be welcome in the Merlin tomorrow ?

Well thanks for that Ian. I mean that honestly. So he has been dead for over two weeks now and you cliquey cunts decide that you should let everybody else who also liked the man a lot know? I despair Fuck you and fuck your "lounge" Goodbye Whits, my best memory was of you on the way to some godforsaken League 2 match on the train, I think it was with Blackcurrant ++ Have a beer with Neville. In fact have as many beers as you want and keep doing it over and over mate. RIP |

Didn't know the guy, except for his posts on this forum. Seemed like a straight up sort of chap.
Hate it when someone is taken way before their time in this way.
Condolences to his family and friends.

Oh my goodness, I've only just seen this. How absolutely awful. My thoughts are with his family and friends.
I have only met a couple of the TEF in person. I will try and get to the Merlin today though, as would like to show my respects and it would be nice to put some faces to names.
RIP Whits :-(

I'm still in the mountains so can't make today, met him many a time at various away matches, stood right next to him in that picture at the top of this page - Iffy's first game in charge away at Donny, obviously didn't know him that well but will always remember him fondly.
Raise a glass for me, let's get out of this mess STFC and give us a reason to celebrate this season.
Walk on Whits, you'll never be alone.
