Many of you will know Sarah as the first face you see when entering the Memorial Gate entrance.
After many years, Sarah has decided to stop selling programmes.
I can remember buying programmes from her at Twerton when I was still at school so she must have well over 30 years loyal service to the club, out in all weather's and unpaid. Add to that the years on the SC committee working duty nights at 199, selling match and coach tickets, merchandise and fundraising.
To put it in context, some players achieve legendary status after only playing around 20 games. Sarah has probably had over 750 home "appearances" - even Stuart Taylor did reach those levels! And I am not sure many players would have still "worked" when 8 months pregnant!
Together with her partner in crime Sue Dry selling 50/50 tickets from the Mem Gates, they have been a mainstay since the clubs return to Bristol.
I hope the football club will make an effort to reward her for her incredible loyal service.
