Adam's funeral

[Albert the Red]

I was working in Plymouth today but made the journey back to help line the streets and stand outside the cathedral, I couldn't not pay my respects to Stanno for all the pleasure he has given over the last 4 years. As previously said it really hit home when I saw Stanno's coffin with the football on it, we have been robbed of a great team player, but when I saw the "Daddy" flowers I know we have lost little in comparison to his family. I had a very sobering drive back to Plymouth and am thankful for all I have. Stanno will live long in our hearts and minds God Bless Stanno, Exeters number 9. R.I.P.

And that one gets you even harder. A very sad, sad day.

Jesus................just watched it.............the flowers in the shape of "DADDY".

So gutting.

Having been lucky enough to get into the service ( I arrived at 1pm) there was plenty of time to take in what a magnificent building the Catherdal is, it must be 20 years since I have been in there and I had forgotten how immpresive it is. What a fitting place it was to say goodbye to such a magnificent man.

So gutting.

That's what got to me most too. Probably got most other fathers in the crowd as well.
Sad as it was, I was glad I managed to get there today. The fantastic turn out from fans, players & managers says all that needs to be said about the regard Stanno was held in by everyone.
Gone but never forgotten.

Me too! Especially as i also have three children too. I can't even begin to imagine what his kids are going through.

Thanks for all the reports and links everyone. A very sad day for everyone involved and I was struggling not to cry watching the footage.

RIP Adam
