One for the older fans possibly but Paddy Armour passed away last week aged 95.

Funeral will take place on Tuesday at 1.30pm at St Helens Church in Sandal.

Good innings!
Spent about three months going to see him for physio on a dodgy knee, a lovely man.
Had an intrest in everything sporting, he introduced me to one of his other regulars at the time, geoff boycott, who incidently was an absolute EDIT

Remember Paddy and is little room next to the boot room in the old school house really well.
His tools were wintergreen and a heat lamp and when on the pitch the trusty magic sponge.
The smell will live with me forever.

Paddy and Ben Quansa two legends of the Trinity boot room!

I once worked at Wakefield Westgate railway station and we regularly had Geoff Boycott through the booking office on his many travels... I remember him being served one day when Paddy Armour walked through the doors... it was as if the world stopped for Boycott and he treated Armour like a prince... showed respect and genuine friendship,,,

Also remember Paddy with a speaking line in "this sporting life"...

I couldnt find a still with him on but here is a cool picture of Richard Harris in Scott Grix shirt.. in memory of Paddy a vital part of a golden era









Paddy was a great character would be nice to see his picture in the [iHall of Fame [/iat the new satdium.

Paddy was the Principal at the College when I trained as a Physio/Remedial Gymnast. Last saw him at Toppo's funeral.

RIP Paddy (and his wife also)

can't remember Paddy but I can Ben, helped me back to sport when I hurt my back what a character he was,

R.I.P. Paddy

I remember him. Wakefield v Wigan at Belle Vue.
Back in the 60's Frankie Parr breaking up the touchline and Paddy screaming at the touchjudge.

Touchjudge gives Parr in touch (he wasn't, Wigan fans view ) and Wakefield won the game.

RIP fella.

Seem to remember he never had a sponge, his saying was if their properly injured a sponge wont do them a bit of good.

Think he's mentioned in Boycott's biography. He was certainly spoken highly of by Brian Clough in his.

Paddy was a smashing bloke who is inseperable from Trinity when I think back to the 70s and early 80s.

He would always say "it's ANGRY" when he first saw an injury.
Makes me smile to think about him saying that.

I saw Ben in the city centre a few months ago and he always stops and says hello. He always asks about my brothers and my mum.

He's another legend, with the strongest thumbs ever known to man.

RIP Paddy, well not see your like again.
