#pvfc, real ale, world championship whittling

getting into a complicated frasier-style farce situation when your wife, your employee girlfriend, and your foreign spy girlfriend are all at the same party and you have to keep changing leather jackets

Quite a few on here from various clubs with fond memories of Darren Beckford. Mike Baggaley, a local journalist who does a great newsletter about the Vale interviewed some of his team mates for last night’s edition and I laughed a lot at these memories from Phil Sproson

Absolutely shocked by this. I think I was nine when Beckford first signed on loan, and I remember the bucket collections to pay for his transfer fee. I was 14 when he left and I don’t think the Vale have had a striker as good since. What a few years that was. RIP Darren #pvfc

Stunned to see this news 😢 He was an immense player for Vale and top scorer for 4 big seasons in a row. A true club legend loved by the fans and will never be forgotten. Condolences to his family. RIP Becky. "There's Only One Darren Beckford" #PVFC #Legend
