Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: janaage on Monday, March 5, 2007, 13:23:07 Passed away yesterday, shame he never made it to his own wake, thought that idea was pretty cool.
Condolences to anyone who knew the bloke! Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: Fred Elliot on Monday, March 5, 2007, 13:29:46 Never met the bloke but here here
Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, March 5, 2007, 13:31:21 That's a shame. At least the publicity from hsi wake idea will generate much needed money for charity.

Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, March 5, 2007, 21:30:37 He's probably talking to some Councillors or local community groups and hasn't noticed his text. Be patient.

Post by: Fred Elliot on Monday, March 5, 2007, 21:57:26 NOSTRADAMUS SPEAKS
Evening Advertiser (Friday 9th March 2007) By Mr M Bowden Following the sudden and untimely passing of Andy Fitchett, the board of Swindon Town Football Club (ie: Myself and Diamond Mike) call for all supporters to observe a minutes applause before tomorrows game against Accrington Stanley. (should I delete this as being disrespectful to Andy and his family ?) Title: Andy Fitchett RIP.

Id leave that up mate, its the right thing to do Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: Fred Elliot on Monday, March 5, 2007, 22:04:25 OK
Was worried a bit might be taken as disrespectful, but was never ever ever intended that way, I just dont want people making political gain out of what is a terribly sad situation Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: Bushey Boy on Monday, March 5, 2007, 22:07:07 true, end of the day he is a town fan and we owe him a send off in a respectful way
Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: Fred Elliot on Monday, March 5, 2007, 22:09:54 my thoughts exactly
Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: red macca on Monday, March 5, 2007, 22:23:44 Even if the club dont intend to do this i will start clapping by myself if i have to
Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: janaage on Tuesday, March 6, 2007, 09:13:27 I think it will happen, can someone post the idea on MOS as I'm not signed up to that board.
I'll have a word with the guy with the microphone on Saturday if there's no official announcement! Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: Leggett on Tuesday, March 6, 2007, 14:55:41 RIP. my thoughts go out to his family and friends.

applause instead of a minutes silence. Well done, hopefully he would have prefered that :) RIP, my thoughts are with his friends and family Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: Fred Elliot on Tuesday, March 6, 2007, 15:40:47 Well done to who ever at STFC made that happen !!!
Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: janaage on Tuesday, March 6, 2007, 15:54:08 From Ben Lambert
Rob Thanks for your comments. FYI Andy's family have been in touch and requested that something similar to what you suggested takes place. We have updated the website accordingly. Regards, Ben Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: DMR on Wednesday, March 7, 2007, 14:08:33 Andy was introduced to the us when we were on the VIP day a couple of weeks ago, and seemed a genuinely nice bloke. Sad news.
FWIW he was there as a guest of Mike Bowden I believe, and Ben Lambert and co went round and raised a few hundred quid for his 2 chosen charities so fair play. Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: Bushey Boy on Wednesday, March 7, 2007, 14:25:21 fair play to the board for that.
Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: Devon Red on Wednesday, March 7, 2007, 16:01:59 I think that's going to be a great touch to applaud him for the minute instead of having a silence. I'm glad the club announced this and are allowing it to happen
RIP Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: Spencer_White on Wednesday, March 7, 2007, 21:33:20 That really is gutting that he didnt get to do his own wake. That really is harsh. :shake:
Title: Andy Fitchett RIP. Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, March 7, 2007, 21:43:18 The sad thing is, that happens to loads of people every day
