On Saturday myself and my two sons will be at Hillsborough. This is on the way home from walking across England from the Lake District coast to the Yorkshire coast. We have done this, with my wife in memory of her father, the boys grandfather. He was a great walker, and upon retiring 20 years ago also did this walk. Three years ago he was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease. We already knew something was wrong. Cruelly for such an active man it took his legs first. He died earlier this year. We have carried a collecting tin and have a just giving page. I haven't put this up because I feel users of this site already give a lot to other requests. This is just to tell you that police / Sheff Weds permitting my wife will be somewhere near the away end with her tin. If you see her, it's genuine. Go and say hello and any loose change will be much appreciated. Thanks.Llan |  | | |  |

Good luck, I’ll keep an eye out. An ex work colleague of mine who also played for Aldershot the season they played wolves in the div 4 play offs (Paul “paddy” Hampshire) was taken in his 49’s by the same disease. |  |

Great effort and a very good cause. Chucked a couple of quid in after full time and mentioned to your wife I'd seen your post on here. |  | | |

Thanks to everyone who contributed or came and chatted. Both R's and Owls put some cash in, and it all helps. Across the walk and yesterdays match nearly £100 was in the tin. A further £500+ online, so a great effort. Nice for my wife to discover football followers are actually quite nice! She did look very startled before the match when a group gave her a big UR's!!
Thanks again. Great performance as well. | | | |
