Title: Frederic Darras RIP
Post by: bathford on Thursday, October 28, 2010, 11:59:15
I know this has been briefly mentioned in 'ex players' but thought it should have it's own heading.  It's sad to hear of the death of any player, even more so at such an early age.

Heart attack at 44 years of age.

Rest in peace my friend.

Very sad news and a minutes applause at the Charlton game would be a good idea.

I met him during the clubs Open Day back in 1996 and he was a very nice chap.  RIP.

:eek:

Terrible news. I'm not a great fan of minute's silences/applause in general (tsounami victims and other disasters) but this is very relevant to STFC and I think something along those lines would be fitting at the next home game.

It's fitting that his wikipedia site translates the line 'Il était défenseur.' as 'He was champion'

RIP Frederic. You were champion.

Remember his Town debut I think, a friendly v Woking away.  He kicked someone in the head that night.  Broughht a whole new meaning to 'no nonsense defender'.

RIP

Rip very sad news.

Yeah RIP Freddie

Remember your league debut at Carrow Road.  A rather worrying introduction to a higher league for Town but things steadied after that.

Those years with McMuck as manager weren't the easiest but you were a very dependable defender, a real team player

Condolences to your family

Fucking tragic news.

Darras was a decent player who gave eveything he had, every time he played for us. To croak at such a young age is horrible. My thoughts go out to his family and friends. Must be a shit, shit time for all of them.
