Keith was a SC committee member during our time at Twerton. He was a keen follower of Gloucestershire cricket and heavy rock music.
He did not suffer fools and had a high moral view of right and wrong. I remember one away game when he saw a driver using his mobile phone. As he approached the traffic lights, Keith stood in his way and wouldn't move until he finished the call.
While on the committee he made his views clear. On one occasion he told the FCs financial manager at that time in no uncertain terms that he made a ridiculous investment as it was bound to make a loss and the club was absolutely skint. (Seemed he saved the Board a job as both resigned soon after).
A season ticket holder at Eastville, Twerton and the Mem, he had not watched a game since Joey Barton was appointed.
He suffered a heart attack about ten years ago but that didn't stop him from telling people his views, especially referees and umpires!
I believe he was an active reader of Rovers forums but I do not know if he posted or what his user name was.

I heard this tragic news last week and I knew Keith both through watching Rovers and the local live music scene.
Very sad news and thoughts and prayers with Keith and everyone close to him.
