Gary may of been small in stature but was a huge character with a wicked sense of humour. Will be a fitting tribute at tomorrow’s game, I’m sure there would of been a cheeky grin on his face.
Gary will be a huge miss to all that had the pleasure of his company.

Same here, Gary and his mates always stand in front of me on the Popside but I didn’t know who it was until I saw the photo in the Mail.

Rest in peace Gary, taken far too young. :scarf: :scarf:

Raised a glass to you from afar today Gary.

Gutted I couldn’t be there. I’m sure you’ll have had a proper send-off from everyone, friends, family & Barrow supporters.

RIP mate.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.
