First got to know Mick queueing up for the Green ‘Un on Derby Road.
Always had time for a chat about all things Town.
RIP Mick.

Was told that he'd passed away this morning in Ashgate Hospice after losing his battle.
Thoughts and condolences to Linda and the family along with his regular group in the West Stand.
RIP Mick, finally at peace & State 11
Just a shame Mick won't be able to see his beloved Spireites back in the football league next season although I bet he'll be watching from above cheering them on ⚽️🔵⚪️

Met Mick when we both started at William Rhodes 57 years ago.
We became best friends and remained so forever.
You couldn't wish to meet a more decent person.
There's not going to be much sleep tonight/
RIP my good friend, no more pain.
My thoughts are with all your family and friends.
See you in blue heaven.
Nigel.

I’ve sat a couple of seats down from Mick since we moved to this stadium and known him almost 30 years. A top top bloke who always had time to chat, he always made a point of talking to my kids when at the game. I look back to earlier last year when he grabbed me by the arm and told me life is short and make the most of it. There were probably 7000 people in the stadium that day but he chose to share that private moment with me. Those words got me then and they are definitely getting me now :-( RIP Mick and love to your family and friends xxx

We were at Halifax for the play off win we had a great night. I am on the other side of the photo he had his hand on my shoulder. In latter months he battled and struggled to get to his seat behind Cooky's dug out, but he made it. He never gave up. God Bless Him. Boy I will miss him.
