singe Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Fans are organising a minutes applause on 55th minute in memory of 5 year old Joshua McCormack who has passed away from a brain tumour. Rochdale have retired the number 55 shirt used he came on as sub. Great idea Danny, Danny Taylor @dan_taylor12 13h13 hours ago What do people think about have a minute's applause on 55th minute for the Rochdale fan (McCormick) who passed away today? #oafc http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/rochdale-fc-retire-squad-number-12450925 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteg999 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 It's the least we can do no family need the untimely loss of one so young and anything which may give some comfort to them should be done in his memory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Only Blue Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 He had close family who are Oldham fans so I am sure they would appreciate the gesture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longtimeblue Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Anyone who can possibly object to this needs to have a look in the mirror. OAFC fans are decent humans underneath the rivalry, bickering and apathy. Cant imagine how the family must be feeling. Well done Danny Taylor In fairness, I don't think there will be any one who'll object. Local lad... Football allegiances are irrelevant. Poor lad.

welshgaz Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I live in Whitworth where the family live. Truly awful. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostofcecere Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Well observed I thought considering it was only organised via word of mouth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
