Raj Posted 6 October 2016 Posted 6 October 2016 Puts things into perspective. Thoughts with his family.
urban.spaceman Posted 6 October 2016 Posted 6 October 2016 Very sad news, but as you said, at least he lived long enough to see us win the Premier League - that must have been a comfort towards the end. RIP.
Buzzell Posted 6 October 2016 Posted 6 October 2016 RIP Stocky. Thought's go out to his family and friends.
davieG Posted 6 October 2016 Posted 6 October 2016 Just watched lcfc v Burnley front the 66/67 season on BT sports 5-1 to us Banks, Rodriques 1, Sjoberg, Cross, Norman, Sinclair 2, Roberts, Gibson 1, Goodfellow, Stringfellow1, Dougan. Thought of Stocky whilst watching as I bet he was there as was I. RIP. STOCKY You saw the best, worst and most sublime.

MC Prussian Posted 7 October 2016 Posted 7 October 2016 Very sad news indeed. I met Pete once, at Preston North End away, some three, four years ago. Lovely man, but I remember him telling me then already that he was rather ill and wasn't expecting to live that much longer. He was that honest. We used to have good arguments on FT and he came across a level-headed, insightful and utterly dedicated to the cause. R.I.P., stockyfox.
Crazy Kop Corner Posted 7 October 2016 Posted 7 October 2016 I think he used to post on Bentleys Roof and was occasionally on Radio Leicester as well. He always came across as a real gent. He was always tremendously well informed and passionate about our great club. Sincere sympathy to all of his friends and family.
Guest Col city fan Posted 7 October 2016 Posted 7 October 2016 That made me think...I hadn't seen Stocky on here for a long time.... RIP mate.
TrentFox Posted 7 October 2016 Posted 7 October 2016 It's hard to respond to such sad news with any words that seem to be appropriate. I never knew Stocky, but read his posts. He seemed to have a broader view. A bigger perspective. I may have missed it, but I don't recall him having a tantrum if we lost or played a formation he disagreed with. He just seemed to enjoy the journey that we are all on; one that's bound together by a common love of this great club. A sobering reminder of for all of us our own mortality and just why we should embrace the precious moments that occasionally come our way. Deepest condolences to all his family and friends.

There is sometimes a post on FT that, when you read it, you know it's come 'straight from the heart' This is one such post.
Bayfox Posted 8 October 2016 Posted 8 October 2016 Rip. I don't know the guy. But I did love his calls to rl. Seemed a nice guy.
Guest CityFan 06 Posted 8 October 2016 Posted 8 October 2016 R.I.P Stockyfox - Very sad news and my thoughts are with his family and friends. I'm glad you managed to witness us becoming English Champions and qualifying for the Champions League.
Voll Blau Posted 10 October 2016 Posted 10 October 2016 Sad news. Used to enjoy reading his posts about old players and matches.
Bramhall Fox Posted 10 October 2016 Posted 10 October 2016 Thank you for letting us know. I met Stocky a couple of years ago through this forum and last saw him when he came round to my house a few days after we won the league to chat and celebrate - whilst he was a generation older than me, we always had a great laugh due to our mutual passion. When he last visited, we laughed and joked in disbelief that our beloved club had actually won the Premier League. Very sad to hear of his passing.
