Difficult to add anything that hasn't been said already and better, but what a great day for all of you!

Some wonderful memories to hold on to in the tough times.

By the looks of things, I'm sure Bobby Zamora felt equally privileged to have met your dad.

And from your OP and photos, it feels like we have all met him too.

Thank you and please pass on all of our best wishes to him.

Really sorry to hear the news about your Dad. Glad he had a good time yesterday. My best wishes to you and your family.

I remember a great day out with my Dad and Bob at an FA Cup match in the 80's between Maidstone and Worthing, when both those clubs were high up in non league football.

I also remember him being very kind after my Durrington Cosmos team had just lost 20-0 against your Adur Athletic.

What an incredibly uplifting story. I remember my dads last game at the goldstone as he died at 52 and this story brought a tear to my eye. I hope you get to see your dad as long as possible and you are his strength.

Well done the albion too...and seeing des also is a welcome sight. I hadn't seen him for so long

Best regards

Sorry to hear about your dad's condition. I'm glad he had such a special day. Lots of great memories created that your family can treasure over the years.

When family members go, such things can mean a lot.

I'm sorry to hear your father has such a terrible illness, my thoughts go out to him, you, your family and friends. That is an utterly wonderful thing for the club to do though, credit to every one of them.

Your whole family has been so kind to me since we got together up in the North West corner....you were out of sight on Saturday but most certainly not out of mind. Bob is a real gentlemen, not unlike my late Dad - I can't say more highly than that. We really must meet up for that beer in Shoreham.
