BAGMAN Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 Tomorrow at Kellaway Parc sees Helston AFC host Porthleven FC in the Dave Gardner Memorial Trophy. 1500 kick off, should be a good game between 2 local rivals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAPPO Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 Fantastic to see the trophy still going strong between all these great clubs. All of Dave's many mates still think about him and smile every day but for those younger players who didn't have the pleasure of knowing him give these games 100% because that's what he did in every game he ever played. God bless to you mate and may the best team win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God bless to you mate and may the best team win. I still have the photo of the three of us on my desk at work. We were having a beer at the Cafe Schwarz in Amsterdam in the sunshine and not a care in the world! Whenever things are a bit tough I only have to look at the photo and it puts things back into perspective. Absolute inspiration both then and now. God bless him!

RAPPO Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Same here Tom!! Got that one framed as well mate! Best days of my life, playing in a fantastic team but with such great mates. I'm sure that's why we won so many things, "team spirit" was an understatement! Reckon we all turned down a fortune to stay together at Town bud. The times we had were priceless!!! Dave seemed to be at the heart of everything hilarious though! What a legend! Catch you soon mate. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That kind of currency is priceless and can never be spent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
