loweman2 Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 As always guys thanks for all of the positive messages, it is such a shame that he couldn’t have been presented it by his captain at the time on the pitch at the first game of the season as planned but something litigious got in the way and spoiled it but just seeing Jim’s face when I handed it to him was well worth it. he still works tirelessly now trying to put together a legal case for footballers who have been diagnosed with dementia, he has been working on it for 13 years and studied for a PhD to assist him in his research. a top top man ! it was Jim who gave me the battered old ball from the 1968 league cup 3rd round replay versus Chelsea which in turn had been presented to him by his then captain Dave Mackay for being the man of the match, it was that game that started the Clough journey real, the night the Baseball Ground shook ! so a favour for a favour !

DesertRam Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 I am proud to be a Rams fan when I read stories like this, well done mate. I can still remember the feeling around Derby at the time you are talking about, and everything felt just that little bit brighter, it was good to be alive, and don't forget Derby was still a Town back then! loweman2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozza Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Heart warming story, and how proud you must be to get the honour of presenting Jim with his long overdue medal. loweman2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
