Mod. Notice RIP Miggs

[Ticky009]

As per the post over on the Sweet FA board we are sad to report the passing of Swans board member Miggs who lost his battle with cancer recently.

Whilst he hasn't been active in here for a while those who recall will know he left a lasting impression of someone who had very little filter and was just about the funniest poster I've ever met. Miggs and I has some great banter going on his time on the board and I personally am going to miss him horribly.

I was tempted to post this under the Autopsy Thread moniker because I know for a fact Miggs would have found that bloody hilarious but I'm too upset right now to do it. Sorry mate.

In a world with limits Miggs had very few but those limits were always on the way to a laugh. There was never anything vindictive or nasty about his humour, he was just bloody funny and a great guy. He was also a very genuine human being who cared about those around him.

His passing is a sad loss and I know he'll be missed.

The Boys Club & Sweet FA Farewell A Great One - RIP miggs

Hi all, I feel I have been scripting this thread for a few days now but I know I will in no way be able to give it true justice. I'm also aware this may be the first time the news is reaching others that knew him well so I can only offer my further condolences. On Monday afternoon the terrible...

A truely great loss to the Swans board. Although he hasn't been around for a while, the thought he won't ever return is very sad. One of the funniest posters I have ever encountered in my time here. RIP mate.

RIP

Lovely note from Ticky and Filth on the SFA.

Miggs was a rambunctious, uproarious and widely loved poster.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Its a very harrowing thought to know you will never see that person post again.

RIP Miggs

 

[sataris]

I'm going to miss him

 

[Mister B]

That's bloody sad news. Great memories of the intro thread where Millky95 and GotTheGoodes would welcome the new comers while Miggs would appear to oh so generously offer his "support" for our new female posters.

Just can't believe this news , we had a fair bit of banter on FB and i really got along with him so well and he was one that understood me and we had a laugh. RIP miggs

 

[Kirkswan]

Very, very funny poster...

RIP Miggs

 

[bedford]

Had to laugh as i went back on our FB exchanges and the views on BF and some were very interesting , he actually got frustrated as he thought it was too strict and that's why he dropped off a bit .

Rest in Peace Miggs there is now another angel looking from above.

Condolences to the family and loved ones during this time

 

[GotTheGoodes]

Bloody hell Miggsy... You still owe me a beer!

I'll get it off you when we can finally catch up. All good.

RIP mate.

He had zero filter which is what made him such a funny poster but also a bit of a challenge.

I'm still pretty devastated.

Were you a mod with him , i was going back a few years .
We both were opening bowlers in cricket so we used to talk about that and how good it was to sledge the batsman

Not sure if I was a mod back then or not.

Miggs styled himself as the Lothario of the Swans board and i'd tell him how awful he was at it. And don't even get me started on the whole Miggs dungeon conversation we had going.

And plenty agree with him..RIP Miggs.

 

[The King!]

Oh wow that's s**t news

RIP

 

[Tedeski]

Very sad to hear.
He was a fun poster & I wondered why he & other posters had stopped posting over the years.
Sad knowing that we won’t see another post from him.
RIP Miggs.

 

[bedford]

One bit of joy Miggs got was to marry his sweetheart while in Hospital , this is sad , but as she said he'll be out of pain

 

[ashep]

This is kick in the guts. Have to admit I gloss over the stickied threads so didn't see this until now.

A reminder we all need that the back and forth that goes on here is all just a bit of fun and there are other things that really matter.

So well said , too many get upset by nothing really

Sorry to hear it! Always sad to hear of a beloved forum member passing away.

It can be quite sobering not knowing what has become of posters when you no longer see them around, especially when they are great contributors. I feared the worst about Grand Uncle Horace last year or so when he went missing for 6 months or so?

Nevertheless, RIP miggs.

Aye Ed, RIP Miggs.

This is a difficulty of sm like BF I guess. When folk disappear i do get worried too.

Have asked my fave ex Ms H to let a couple of folk on BF know when I revert to different carbon.

Hope that he runs into Davey Boy Smith and gets the pig power slam. Was off topic but we enjoyed a few chats about the British Bulldogs.

What a shame, may he rest in peace and his family celebrate his life and contribution.

Thinking of those who knew him personally or got to know him here where they called him a friend.
