This is a serious rant from me(for once)
Thanks to my Niece,s contact at work,who happenes to be on the inside at Punt Road,organised a day out at Punt Road for my father,who turns 86 in a few days time.
he was taken to Punt road,shown around the place,and shown all the memorabilia and the works and jerks of our beloved club who he has devoutly and unconditionally supported for the last 80 years or so.
All the young players as well as richo,browny and Kane johnson all took time out to say hi and shake his hand,which really blew my Dad away.for once,he was lost for words.
I just learnt about this an hour ago and my Dad was on the phone tellin me me about this.hes just in 7th heaven.
I was in tears.
I just wanted to tell all of you about this because its a bloody fantastic story to me.
I love you more than ever Richmond....and thank you to the players for makin my Dads day.
Cheers everyone!
 
That's lovely nitrous...thanks for sharing it with us. :hearton (Sure makes a welcome change from the endless bagging of the club.)

Best wishes to your Dad for a :birthday

I hope the Tiges give him a premiership next year.

great story.

GO those Bloody Tiges!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Happy birthday to the old fella Nitro. Thanks for the story too, great to hear he enjoyed it so much and that the players were all so forthcoming.
 
Great story Nitro,

I'm lucky to know a couple of the players families and they're just run of the mill families like us, so they'd be really glad to hear that their kids have made someones day. Makes it all worthwhile

Just a wonderful story , that's the sort of stuff we need to keep coming out of tigerland.
Happy Birthday
 
A great story Nitro. I'm really happy for him. Good on the club and the boys for giving a good day. if he's haldf the bloke you are Nitro he'd be a dead set champion.

Don't forget my beer and free gutair lesson when I visit South QLD dude!
 
That is fantastic.

And considering the older blokes are not really due back at the club until next Monday (I think), it is good to see.

:clap

And happy birthday to Senior Nitro! :partyfest
