Hi, for those who follow me on twitter (sad bastards) you may have seen that my friend Lee Turner tragically took his own life a few weeks ago. Its his funeral on Tuesday, he was 34 and leaves a wife, a 4 year old and 1 year old daughter. Many of you and in particular Nick Day were very kind in sharing or donating to a fund to build a memorial bench for his girls to sit on and remember him by. His widow was very touched and thanks all that helped.
His widow has asked me if i could find her a Rovers shirt from 1985 (his year of birth) so im really hoping someone on here could help? I have no idea what shirt we wore then or how i would find one.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Dins

Had a look but can't find it anywhere sorry. Asked a few friends who are into buying/selling of old strips if they could possibly source one so i'll get back to you.

That will be a hard one to find for sale. But somebody somewhere will have it. Just hope they hear about this appeal and loan it.

Geoff Twentyman and Tom Gorringe have tweeted this over the weekend.

dinsdale I am so sorry to hear of this. I have lost 2 friends in this manner and it’s awful for all concerned. The questions never stop and the poor guy must have been in such torment. Please pass on my sincere condolences to the family, even though I don’t know them. What an awful thing to read on here,
