TLA: RIP 10:37 - Aug 5 with 107879 viewsSwailsey

Hello all,

Lisa has asked for me to pass this very sad news on.

Unfortunately we lost Oz yesterday. By all accounts he wasn’t in any pain or afraid.

I know the messages below were recieved and provided comforted to both him and Lisa.

RIP Oz. I wish we had met sooner than a year ago.

You were a fu*king hero and someone I knew would be a friend for life.

Marc

It’s with a very heavy heart that I received a message from TLA’s wife last night saying he is critically ill in hospital at the moment and isn’t conscious. He has been battling health problems for a while it seems.

TLA has been a wonderful (digital and in person) friend to me since meeting him on here and I know he has been supportive of many others on here too.

He recently deleted his profile (I’m unsure of the reasons why - perhaps connected) but I know his wife still reads TWTD, so I’m calling on all of you wonderful people to help make this a thread of love, support and best wishes to them both and their friends and families (this thread has her blessing).

Let’s give him something TWTDesque to read.

Hang in there mate. The world is an immeasurably better place with you in it. Missed you at half time yesterday.

That is dreadful news. When my Dad was ill and I wasn't coping well he messaged me to say he'd gone through similar and offered a lot of support. Being a Norfolk based blue like myself he even offered to meet up for a pint, I haven't got round to it but it just shows what a nice guy he is. I hope he can make a full recovery, they say about the kindness of strangers but through our chats I feel like I know him, hang in there mate.

I always considered TLA to be a lovely warm freindly poster and a true gentleman on here. I eventually met up with him in the fanzone last season , albeit all too briefly, and true to say he was a wonderful chap who I'd love to spend more time with.


Hope you pull through TLA and best wishes to your family.

Definitely one of the very best on here (doesn't he run a pub, if I remember correctly?) for his kind, supportive words and actions. Sending you a virtual hug Mrs TLA, have some for yourself and pass it on to him!

Hi folks, Lisa, Oz (TLA)'s wife here. Really appreciate all the messages - will go and read them out to him in a minute. For all of those saying he's been kind, supportive and seems like a really good bloke you're completely right - what you see is completely what you get! I know I'm biased, but he is an absolute inspiration of a man. He's been my best friend and hero for 26 years, and from the amount of well wishes and visitors he's had suggests he means a lot to everyone.

He's currently stable but highly critical. They think it's a liver problem which caused huge internal bleeding. They're unable to investigate the cause at the moment as their main concern is keeping him alive.

I'll do my best to keep everyone updated. He's completely sedated but we were able to bring a radio in to his room yesterday to listen to the game. I was with him when we scored after 5 mins and had to apologise to the nurse for shouting so loudly!
