Tony, Many, many thanks for your work over the years. You are a true hero for non-league football. I fear we shall never see your like again, but would wish that someone somewhere would take up the mantle, as it is a service that no-one has been able to match. I would - and will - pray for recovery, but like yourself am fearful for the worst. - I have just read all your details after witnessing Gloucester's entry to the play-off final - apparently we are the longest serving team in any league (please correct me if I'm wrong!), but could be promoted this weekend to new heights... one of my other passions, Lowestoft Town (long story), could also be seeking new challenges... and the only place i can find the "gen" on our opponents in cup competitions is tonykempster.com If we could issue a lifetime achievement award for non-league football, there would be nobody else in contention. Please accept my true recognition on behalf of all the clubs I follow. Dr Wart Hoover - Gloucester City / Lowestoft Town / Stafford Rangers
