Re: Roger Millward R.I.P. : Wed May 04, 2016 12:04 am  
A sad day.
So sorry to hear that Rovers greatest has passed.
As a youngster I first saw him in 67, in the midst of the Airlie Birds fallow period. I was amazed at just how good he was. He was one of the reasons I loved the game. Seeing exceptional talent like his was really something, he was on a different level.
So many times I just wished we had him.
He was the reason you had the greatest period in your History. A true Legend of the game.
RIP Roger Millward.
thanks for the memories....well some of em.

    I would be very happy to lend my energies to that.

    I like this idea, Goose. Is it worth setting up a Just Giving page, or is this Website for genuine charitable causes?

    As I'm not on Facebook or Twitter or any of the new breed of social media, I don't know if such an initiative for a commemorative statue for Roger outside CP is underway.

    Would appreciate your thoughts and those of our other fellow forumsters in this regard.

    PLEASE LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK.

    Having started watching Rovers in the early 70's, I can say without a doubt that Roger has been a hero of mine for a long long time. I would be more than happy to help in any way I can. It's a fantastic idea and one worthy of everyone's support.

    If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

    I don't do Facebook or any of that other stuff.

    I've done some very, VERY, brief research and I think it would need to be crowd funded, again, I've done very brief research on that and I think it potentially could be a goer.

    Obviously the club and first and foremost Roger's family would need to be aware and in agreement, with him being such a modest man maybe the last thing he would want would be something like this.

    Perhaps we should just ideas here for now.

    I did look at setting up a Facebook page, just as a test but it was clearly way beyond me. I also think this should have a separate thread, this is for condolences.

    Sad news. A man small in stature but a giant of the game we all love. Condolences to his family and friends. Rest in Peace Roger.

    Rovers have retired the No.6 jersey indefinitely with immediate effect.

    Campese will play No. 32 if he ever gets back on the pitch.

    It's a nice gesture but it's not one I like. I don't think it sends a good message to the current and future players.

    Statues, naming stands etc are more appropriate in my opinion.

    I don't any player could take offence at this gesture it happens in a lot of sports so it's nothing new
