R.I.P. lived in London for many years and travelled up with the branch of supporters from there regularly, anyone know any details?

Really saddened to hear the news yesterday.
As Wezza says, Froggy was a great bloke, good company, great sense of humour and proper, old school Stoke fan.
I started to go away games in the very early 70's, quite often it was carnage, not for the feint hearted. Stoke didn't take big away followings, those lads that did go were a tight knit group. For the young 'uns like me, wet behind the ears and not up to speed, Froggy was one of the older lads who watched our backs and showed us the ropes. Nothing and nobody fazed Froggy. I always had massive respect for him.
God bless you Froggy.

Found out yesterday that Froggy had sadly passed away.
Of late he was living in the Moorlands and suffered poor health too.
One of the original old school lads I remember from the 70’s.
RIP Froggy
😢🦆😢🦆😢

It's very sad that he couldn't go to games in recent years due to ill health, genuine Stoke through and through.

I can't picture him, Dave, but I used to travel up regularly using those cut price tickets from Euston that the Southern/London supporters managed to negotiate. So the chances are I must have seen/spoken to him on the train, or at one of those "interesting" away days. Condolences to Froggy's friends and family. Every step along the way. |

I spent a few days in hospital last year and ended up in the next bed to froggy, it ended up with 3 of us and we tried to watch one game on a mobile phone but it kept buffering .I don't think the nurse was impressed when i asked could she turn some of the heart monitors off to improve reception.Under the circumstances he made the time quite good with our talk about all things stoke. RIP STOKIE
