I was in the garden, in the sunshine, sorting bean seeds. Granddaughter came in from school and ran up the path. "Gans" she cried and ran to cuddle me. If you could bottle that moment you would make more money than Musk and Gates combined.
Dad was first taken to Portman Road by his uncles in the 1930's. The amateur days.
He continued to follow Town after he had been evacuated to Worcestershire during the war. He married a local girl and took his sons to away games in the midlands afterwards.
He was there when we beat Villa to win in '62. I was with him at Wembley in '78 and against AZ in '81. A long term season ticket holder until he could not get there any more.
He would have been 100 on Saturday when we play Newcastle.
I would like to ask Blues going to the match. If at some point you find yourselves with a glass of refreshment, to raise it to Fred, a Blue, for his birthday. He would have loved to have been there. Cheers.
