RIP Jane Summerfield aka TractorGirl 09:57 - Jun 22 with 15605 viewsSitfcB

Former poster TractorGirl, Jane Summerfield, sadly passed away back in February.

I know she had controversial views and was always outspoken on here but I got to know her and met her a few times at football plus seeing her on the bus or at Tesco Copdock a few times, believe she lived somewhere off Belmont Road and she was a thoroughly nice lady.

My mum is a bus driver and she had heard from another driver, Jane was a regular bus user, a while ago that Jane had passed alone at home due to Covid but I hadn’t seen any confirmation as such until just now on her FB page.

RIP Jane x

She kind of got me into writing the Warky Reports. Met her at PR once back in 2005, we'd just beaten someone and I was going down the pub after the game.

It surprised me when she said she was on TWTD as most people you meet in real life don't admit it or just say they've 'had a look'. She was nothing like you'd imagine her from here. I always had an image of 'Crazy Cat Lady' from the Simpsons for some reason. How wrong I was.

RIP Jane.


Just through the power of encouragement?
Before my time, although I do have vegan ham in my work sandwich every day.(would she have approved?) She sounds great fun and terribly sad to hear of anybody dying in these circumstances.

Sad news. A real character. In tribute, I will drink a bottle of vodka tonight so that I can drive better.

From memory she got the red card.

Edit; Gav says it was a mutual agreement to stay away and that may well be correct - I guess we are talking almost 15 years ago now.

No I'm pretty sure she wasn't banned but did come to an agreement with Phil, mainly for her own good at the time. Happy to be corrected.

It might have been a red card at the end but she did get bullied an awful lot. As can be seen from posts on this thread, some things she posted many years ago are fondly remembered. RIP TG.

Jeez - that's a real kicker. I never crossed swords with her and she was clearly a passionate fan.

Absolutely tragic.

No, I don't think it was for her own good as such, it was more because she'd caused upset for a few posters with some of the things she posted. We discussed the matter at the time and agreed it was best her account was deleted. I had been quite good friends with her for a number of years having been part of the Supporters Trust committee alongside her.

RIP TG, never fortunate enough to meet you in person but you gave me some laughs back in the good old days on this forum.

That's really sad (anyone going out alone), as noted elsewhere, could be mad as a fish and took too far in the end, but genuine TWTD character, hence so many people still bringing up her flying car / ham sandwich and the fox anecdotes to this day. Bless x

Sad news, she became a bit of a board legend and in the style of J Nolan became better the longer her absence went on.

RIP

There's been a few board stalwarts graduate to the big forum in the sky over the last few years, perhaps a hall of fame could be added as a page and their (user) names added? Not suggesting pictures on pillars, just might be nice to remember and honour them.


terrific idea, let it happen

Blimey that's a name that goes back. I hope she's happily feeding ham sarnies to foxes from the window of her flying car wherever she is right now.

Sorry to hear that. She was quite a character, and provided much myrth on twtd back in the day. And of course, she loved ITFC.

Remember arguing heatedly with her on ITFC-related matters but it's fairly easy to separate that from understanding that someone is a good soul. Belatedly, am very sorry to hear this.
