Don't know if anyone saw this, a great interview with Jock - a wire of 80+ years who's been given a few weeks to live: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQuQL5JPHNI (Think I'm ok posting this?)

Read about it in the Guardian earlier in the week, great gesture by the club to have him over for breakfast with the players and staff.

It's great that his last few weeks are being made so enjoyable for him.

He's the nicest man you'll ever meet, and you could talk to him all day. Jock absolutely loves the club, and he pops to the stadium on his scooter every day.

I loved going to matches with him and Cynthia when I was younger.

What an absolute gent! Terrific from the club well played.

Wonderful,He is all what being a Wire is all about.

Great bloke.
Worked on the ambulance service for many years.

What a fabulous interview makes you feel so humble. I feel like a novice having been watching the Wire for only 47 years. Don't know Jock but he comes across as a true gentlemen in the interview and can't argue with his choice of great players. Top gesture by the club too, what RL is all about.

Try only 12 years! (I'm 19).

That's still a good effort you have many years of great excitement ahead. Let's hope you enjoy them for as long as Jock

did he catch the coach at haydock street for away games on barbaras coaches...im certain its him and from what i recall he was a gent..

God that poor man must have suffered. Deserves a rather large medal.

Yes he was always on those coaches for away games. Seen him loads of times in recent years around Sankey on his scooter. Always stops for a chat about the match. Real star.

Used to go to the games with him and Cynthia as a kid in the early 90s. A really sweet couple. Such sad news.

I think Tony gave a shout out to Jock in the post match interview on Friday.

I really hope so!

I might not have the longest tenure but anyone who knows me knows I bleed P&B.

Truly a shame, he's a good laugh jock, way back when i used to shop at Morrison's on a saturday morning, he was usually sat by the check outs waiting for his missus, always wanting to have a grumble about how we'd played the night before if we were on sky.

Lovely bloke. Deserves a celebration.
