bazza Posted May 5, 2021 Posted May 5, 2021 Good podcast again. I wish Tony and all his family all the best. Nice to hear again Only One J Henry's version of By Gum We'll Make It a Day. I love this slow version. This together with the Wild Rover as played at Ewood should be adopted forever as Rovers' themes. 1 Quote
booth Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Best wishes to his daughter, what an awful time she's been though. We need a Tony Parkes statue to go alongside Jack. Quote
