One of my first memorys of watching the Wire was seeing him play and scamper about the field. A great loss.

Parry was a superb player for the Wire and will be sadly missed by everybody who had the good fortune to see him play for the club over a 20 year period.
True gentleman and legend.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this very sad time.
R.I.P Parry, you will never be forgotten.

Well said Dave, Agree totally. It was a pleasure to see him grace Wilderspool. He was a great player and great man. It was sad that he never got GB honours. Hopefully the club will comission a lasting tribute to this great man. |

Terribly sad news. Parry was one of the finest servants Warrington Rugby League have ever had and was a smashing guy. As a kid running on the pitch for autographs and sock ties Parry was one you would always go to as he always obliged with a smile and a chat.
Fabulous player who didn't get the recognition he deserved at international level, probably because there were so many great half backs around at the time.
RIP Parry - a true sportsman and a true gent. My sincere condolences to Parry's family.

I told my wife that a husband is like a fine wine; he gets better with age. The next day, she locked me in the cellar.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4729.jpg |

The words 'legend' and 'great ' are thrown around with ease these days to lots of players.
Parry Gordon was a great and a legend to me.
Most of his time with us he was playing behind a beaten pack and I am glad he got the success he deserved in the 70's. A really great player one of my favourites of all time.
Mentioned many times in this thread that he nevr got the international recognition he deserved.
20 years of service
RIP Parry.

"The Warrington people hadn't had success for a few years, but there's no speccy in the world as good. They are very knowledgeable and appreciative of hard work. What they like is honesty. They want the team to try; if they fail they fail, but they expect honesty. They know when players don't put it in."
Mike Gregory in 'Biting Back':26672.jpg |

Parry was one of the guys that got me watching the Wire way back - a great player and one that will always be a Warrington hero.
RIP Parry and sincere condolences to his family and friends.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

I hope they have minutes silence for him at the Wire v Wigan friendly to let us all pay our respects.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.
