BillyWoofs_shinpad 1,884 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Oh no, that’s so sad, he was always a great contributor to this forum, RIP. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,952 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Have been discussing what to say about this, but yes, it's a sad, sad day. He was always the nicest guy when I spoke to him. Thoughts are with his family and friends. RIP VB. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Heard the news earlier today, really sad to hear it too. Would love to hear more from those who knew him better. My boss knew him a bit, he was biz dev director at Sumo Digital for quite a while and I believe he was still involved in some capacity at least up until recently. Well regarded in the games industry, always hoped to meet him properly and chat about games, the Boro and the forum. Very sad day for all who knew him. Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,695 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Absolute gentleman, the biggest Boro supporter around and his legacy lives on in this website, oneboro wouldn't be around as it is today without his input in the early days. Such sad news. 6 Link to post Share on other sites
chipchat 61 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I tend to just lurk in the forum these days, but had to comment here. A gent of a fellow, and always committed to help others. RIP, sir. Link to post Share on other sites
TLF10 4,440 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Think vectorboro may have been before my time on this board but its clear he was held in high regard by those that knew and met him. RIP Sir. Prayers and Blessings to his family and friends. Link to post Share on other sites
BearSmog 1,382 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Such sad news! Was a prominent poster when I joined the board from 606. Genuinely ITK and not arrogant about it. Seemed like a lovely bloke. Rest in peace Vector. UTB Link to post Share on other sites

RIP Sir. Prayers and Blessings to his family and friends. He was the admin on oneboro before downsouth took over, and he led quite a few of us over here from the old gazette forum when it went down the toilet. Can't understate his importance and how good a guy he was. Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,952 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Less important, but he was also the OG ITK too; many a gazette story taken from his posts on here I'm pretty sure! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,695 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 He used to come on with the exact team for the Saturday on the Friday evening too - I think during the mogga era! Knew his stuff 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Denzel Zanzibar 6,931 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Oh man that's sad news, a bit before my time but heard a lot about the guy. RIP. Link to post Share on other sites
smogsterking the Inspirati 2,453 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Terrible news to hear this. I always hoped he would have make a comeback onto the forum after stepping down. I think he did very briefly a couple of years ago. He made transfer threads exciting with the snippets he used to get (i remember the storm the Mccormack saga started on here and twitter with Leeds fans). RIP 1 Link to post Share on other sites
