What a wonderful and beautiful thing you've done, to see it through to the end and actually get him his medal is superb and somerhing you should be very proud of doing. Fair play to the decision makers as well. Lovely story. nice one @ronnieronalde, I am just pleased for jim ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSox Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 A truly memorable and heroic effort on your part, @loweman2. In awe of what you did for Jim. It'd be nice to think the other players from his generation would drop him a note to congratulate him after so long without what was rightfully his. He earned his medal and you earned my total respect for doing this selfless act. Well done. Hope your son is proud of what his Dad and Grandad managed to achieve. Great for him to rub shoulders (well, his shoulder to their hip) with such legends of our club.

loweman2 Posted August 3, 2018 Author Share Posted August 3, 2018 Andy Ellis has also asked me to mention Ian Ross of Shieldfield, Newcastle who apparently way back in 1997 had done some research into players who had not received medals who should have so good luck to him and we hope that he has many successes.

Mucker1884 Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 What a truly fantastic post, and a fantastic gesture from you, @loweman2. You should feel rightfully proud. I'm assuming that on-pitch presentation never materialised (?). Was it ever made public what the hold up with that was all about? Top, top thread. No idea how I missed it first time around, although it was started the day before Muckerette's birthday, so maybe she was draining some of my attention away! Selfish to the core, that one! ? ?? loweman2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loweman2 Posted March 28, 2022 Author Share Posted March 28, 2022 (edited) A good time to revive this post, for those who may not have seen it from four years ago, one of my proudest DCFC related achievements! 50 years ago Jim got that goal v Palace in a 1-0 win and the points that carried us over the line.
