Respect. We all love the game...
Thoughts and prayers with friends and family. RIP .
The best post on here for many a year. Love & total respect to his family.
RIP and thoughts with his family.
If I go at the end of a long innings while sitting in the ground that I love most to watch my team, I'll die one happy man.
Rest in peace, the guy died doing something he loved doing which was watching his team play, condolences to his family and friends
R.I.P .
Reminds me so much of my late father who was 79.Flashbacks of him coming back fi Dingwall at 2 in the morning, getting dropped of @ Haymarket by supporters bus then walking home to Gorgie. Football is their life & will do all they can to follow their team.
Jeezo …. I sometimes look out the window on the day of a game, see the wind and pouring rain and think 'I'm getting too bloody auld for this' and I'm only 59. Turns out I'm just a whipper snapper.
At the end of the day we are rivals, but we are also brought together by a common bond no matter who we support and that's a passion for the beautiful game which drags us out of the house in all conditions to support the teams we love ….. unless you are one of us you wont understand it, I have two ex wives and a current partner who are proof of that :greengrin
RIP to a true fitba fan and condolences to your family and friends.
Great Post!
I knew the man in question and learned of his death by e mail but I had not realised he was attending the match.
He was a gentleman in every sense of the word.
He always listened to, and thereafter considered, everyone's opinion particularly about football.
He lived a full and active life and looked nowhere near his age.
Although I have not seen him for a while I was lucky enough to have enjoyed his company for a few decades.
He was one of the few Jambos that I know where genuinely pleased for Hibs Supporters when that monkey went.
Condolences to all his family.
R.I.P.
Well done on the OP. Condolences to his family and friends. You have to respect someone who showed so much commitment to supporting the club he loved.
Football fans are a bit poorer with this man's passing.
RIP.

Thanks for giving us more information. Sounds a great guy.
When i read about his passing it touched my heart that he had supported his team for 80 years and even at his advanced age braved horrendous weather to watch his team. I know men half his age with less fortitude.
Sounds like a man who followed his team through thick and thin, for the good times and the bad times.
Sad to hear of his passing and condolences to his family and to hearts who have evidently lost one of their true supporters.
RIP.
