This is my grandad Colin
He came home last night, fell through the door and told my nan to lose some weight
Apparently he drank 19 pints of Moretti in wetherspoons
To anyone who bought him one you should be thoroughly ashamed
π¨Special Message from Viktor

will open early at his request with a special treat for Millers Fans.
The first 600 pints (1 per person) are being paid for by Viktor as a THANK YOU (Not Goodbye) for your support.
Each drink
Sad news, My dad and lifelong Miller Dave passed away at 7am after a long 15 month battle. He fought to the end and getting him to the Sunderland game (below) in Feb was his last goodbye to his club
#rufc
He wasn't in pain and I was with him to the end.

Had a call out of the blue last week off Smudge asking how my dad was etc and would it be OK to pop in on him after training one day. He went yesterday and stayed for nearly 2 hours and even went and spoke to a few other patients who were

The look on my dad's face when he saw today's visitor...... Priceless!!!!
Can't thank the gaffer enough for spending nearly 2 hours with us at the hospital today. β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ

Whether you are a fan of the royals or not, anyone taking the piss out of the death of a 99yr old war veteran needs to give their heads a massive shake
Wow Barnsley have been well and truly fucked over in the space of 2 mins, 100% Penalty turned down by VAR then a straight red when it's a yellow.
Gotta question both, bent

After 7 long months in hospital (still a long way to go) I finally got to take dad outside, started raining but we didn't give a shit. πππππππβ€οΈ
Another little treat for the old man, his fave player
@barlaser_97
popped in to see him today, he was gobsmacked again, can't thank Dan enough, these things make such a difference β€οΈ
#rufc
After 4 and a half long months, dad is finally eating!!!!! Pureed jam sponge and custard but he bloody loved it.
Moving back to Sheffield on Monday fingers crossed to start rehab on his back and neck.
Come on father, will have you back at NYS before we know it
Right
@OfficialRUFC
do this for my dad today! Worst start to 2022 he's fell backwards downstairs and broken his neck, back, chest bone and both collar bones and currently in 8 hours of surgery at northern general. I wanna tell him we won when he comes wakes up later
#rufc
π
That's for you Dad..........
Those 3 points we got at your last game v Sunderland were crucial and I hope you are smiling down on us now proud. β€οΈπ
He always said we'd stay up this year so thank you
@OfficialRUFC
for making it happen
#rufc
Thank you to the amazing staff at Doncaster hospital for fetching my dad out for the first time, 4 of them and his ventilator but his smile when he saw the grandkids was priceless. β€οΈ
So today we gave my dad the best possible send off we could. Amazing turn out of friends with loads of millers shirts on show. Thanks to everyone who came or sent messages and blessed that Warney, Smudge, Woody and Ronnie came too to pay their respects. β€οΈ
#ripdad
After 20 days we were allowed to see dad for 1 hour, only a one off until restrictions are lifted. It helped him (and mum) so much and he couldn't stop smiling. He's a long way to go, maybe 6 months in there and sadly still no movement chest down but he's here and grateful x
With the heaviest of hearts, I'm devastated to tell you all that my beautiful best mate Poppy Dog has passed away.
We've had Poppy nearly 15 years from just 10 weeks old, and our house and life won't be the same without her.
Thank you, PD for being the most amazing companion
Dad's stone is finally down so I've just been up, popped a scarf down and chatted about the
#rufc
game coming up. I wish he was coming to Stoke with me but he will be watching down and cheering us on. β₯οΈ
Happy Birthday
@smudga17
I'll never forget what you did for me and my family during my dad's illness, hospital visits and the funeral to name a few. Have the best day pal
#rufc
#swfc
Highlight of my day......
Maybe year (yes its Feb)
Walking down the stairs at NYS and
@barlaser_97
stopped me, hugged and said his goal was for my dad. Wow, what a guy...... ππππβ€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ
@jaderaynerr
@BarlaserAlison
you have some boy there. Wow x
So yesterday I went to the chapel of rest to see dad for the last time, he looked so peaceful and was proudly wearing his
#rufc
shirt and scarf, I chatted and left an envelope with some pics, a letter and a cigar in the coffin as I left. The funeral is May 9th 1pm in Swinton β€οΈ
@piersmorgan
Had you not spent months building up public hatred towards our politicians maybe it would not have been as bad..... Ever stopped and considered your part in this?
The most amazing woman ever to grace the earth passed away peacefully last night aged 96! She was still smiling right to the very end and leaves us all with so many memories. RIP Nannan Peg, grandad is waiting for you with a hug β€οΈβ€οΈ
On weds night we sent poppy off in style and spread her ashes in her favourite spot over looking Robon Hoods Bay.
Poppy had been nearly 50 times to the Bay and loved it, now she is there forever x β€οΈ
Dad just called me from hospital, traccy cuff off for an hour and called to talk about the game, what a hero.......nearly 4 months in hospital now and still in a bad way but watched the game today and is buzzing!!!!! UTM

I support my team, win lose or draw, end of. Call me an arse licker, call me what you want but bottom line Is I love my club and can't wait until next season no matter what.

I can't express to everyone how overwhelmed
@smudga17
was with the shirt and card signed nearly 200 fans, passed on his thanks to all involved β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ
#rufc
As a neutral at the
#twitterblades
game last night I have to say (even my west ham fan customer said it) that the noise from the home fans was unreal! So passionate and you have to take your hat of to them, it has to help the team massively
My fave season ever, I don't think some fans appreciate how good these lads and management are but they have done it, unreal. Thank you
@OfficialRUFC
#rufc
Blown away by the well wishes received for my dad Dave yesterday, from fans from all clubs, thank you so much. He is out of surgery, pinned and plated his neck, back and chest but the next 48 hours are crucial and only then will we know what happens next. Thanks again everyone x
Please someone tell me how a club who sold their ground for Β£80m to avoid FFP punishment and aren't paying their own players wages are allowed to sign 5 new players last night. It's corrupt and makes a mockery of clubs like

Huge thanks to all who have supported my legends nights and long may they continue as we all raise much needed funds for the hospice.

I think Handsome Matt should take some solace from the fact that the vast Majority of

Home after a great point away

Fine lines all season..... 19 games lost by 1 goal and 2 mins away from safety. No matter what some fans think these lads and management have given everything, against all odds and stretched more than ever. So proud of each and every one of them
#rufc
Anyone who knows me, knows I'm an emotional guy, yesterday we laid my beautiful nan to rest. I'm sure she was smiling down on me as a just about managed to read out the Eulogy. Hardest thing I've ever done and we certainly gave her a good send off xx β€οΈya always peg
