Really sad news. Ricky was a real nice character. Ginge, was the Macclesfield game the one where he scored a wonder goal? I remember him fondly.
RIP Ricky.

Great all round guy Ricky was, such sad news. He will always be remembered not only for his footballing skills but for being a real genuine lad. RIP Ricky 😥💙

Link to the Farnborough v Macclesfield match.
Note to all those that have been coming post 2010, yes, the ground did really look like that at one point, but we were proud of the place.

Well done Mark, a great piece of nostalgia, and that's my son Andy helping to fold raffle tickets. He is now 47!!! Where has the time gone??

A real shame. Part of my favourite era of players.

The last time I saw Ricky was at Kingstonian - he was a sub for Harrow Borough and was warming up before the game. He saw me and came across to say hello. We were having a chat and he noticed I had a cigarette. He asked if he could have a couple of puffs and craftily had a quick smoke before going back to his teammates. Cheeky sod! RIP Ricky.

Apologies the video isn't brilliant, but it was 1995 and VHS was all we had really.
This was actually what was on the Meridian Tonight news, when regional TV companies actually gave a toss about clubs outside the Premier League.
