I read on the club website that 22 of The Legends family are coming up to watch the Newport game, http://www.exetercityfc.co.uk/news/article/2016-17/exeter-city-set-to-welcome-tony-kellows-family-to-st-james-park-on-saturday-3656474.aspx I've no doubt the older members of his family will know how great the esteem Kells was held at The Park but doubt very much that the younger ones will understand even if they've been told. Maybe about the ninth minute (his shirt number obviously) that they are shown (for the younger ones) and reminded (for the elders) with a blast of 'Tony Kellow!! Tony Kellow!! 'ello, ello!!!!!!'

Backing Gary Caldwell, thanks Matt and good luck.
Good idea, maybe those standing around the heart might get behind this?

Definitely agree with this idea. Not sure if many of the guys around the heart remember the old 'ello ello ' chant but it's not exactly difficult to pick up.
Looking forward to it.

I was at the club today and tomorrow's programme was already on sale. Tony is on the cover and there's an interview with one of his brothers in it. Worth buying if you don't usually. I wouldn't be surprised if it sells out. I wonder how many of the exiles remember his 20 games and 8 goals for them? Hopefully they will join in on 9 minutes if that happens.

Didn't he play for Newport as well? Perhaps the Taffs will join in the celebration.
