So that’s another event going from living history into history

Sad.

My grandad was also a survivor. His stories of it he told me when i was a boy were incredible, I didn't really appreciate them until I got older.

As in a living event where somebody was actually present? My mother is 96 and remembers the evacuation.

Just read Gary Pierce, Wolves goalkeeper in the 1970s and hero of the 1974 League Cup triumph, has passed away at the age of 74.

 

[Lupo]

I was in Kiddy this afternoon and Mrs Lupo asked if I heard the bloke who just walked past looking at his phone. I hadn't, she said that he sounded like he'd said 'Wolves keeper has died'. I replied that it's likely to be Phil Parkes as he'd been in hospital since a fall. Checked my phone and saw the GP news

 

[ROVERT47]

We’d have lost the 1974 League Cup final if Parkes was in goal, RIP Gary Pierce.
First man McGarry ran to.
