Brilliant news!


I remember Parky from my days of attending Tattersfield, he was, as has been said, a damn fine player and a Gent. As Wanderer has mentioned, the broad smile that spread across his face whenever anyone was foolish enough to try and have a pop at him will stay with me for ever!

The nearest player around Donny at the moment to Kev is Shaun Carver at Moorends, he has many of the big mans attributes ; size, speed and Kevs big smile, the only thing lacking is Kevs fondness to train.

Thank you all for your kind comments, and thank you so much for voting for him.
It was a very emosional evening for Amanda and myself. And Our eyes are leaking again reading your comments, it's so comforting to know you all remember him with such fondness. The past 3 years without him have been harder than you can imagine but it lifts the saddness when we know that people like you still remember him and regard him so highly.

Once again, thank you all.

He was a top bloke.

Can't believe it's three years.

I remember vividly the throngs of people (many connected with the Dons) who were at the Church on the day of the funeral and at the nearby Club afterwards.

Showed how well-respected and loved the big fella was.

The award is a well-deserved and fitting tribute to a local legend.

For those who knew him from his playing days he was IMO probably the reason the Dons team from the 80's turned from Comic book to best seller. The most charismatic of men. Pleased as punch for his Family that he gets this award.
