Rebel Kay Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 I received the sad news earlier this week that Eric Collins passed away at the weekend aged 96. Eric was a long standing Rebels fan who many of you will remember. He was one of the first people who talks to us when we started to follow the rebels. Mike Lightfoot should have details of the funeral plans in due course. Our thoughts are are with his family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RebelDelaney Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Very sorry to hear of the passing of Eric I pass on my thoughts to his family. I have known him since the late 60s. As some supporters who he stood with know I had been enquiring about him recently. Was a Rebel supporter for 60+years he would of been so dissappointed at missing the first game at Arbour Park. He drove me dad and frank from Eton to the third game in the 70s v Minehead in the FA Trophy. Dave Russell scoring a 25 yard stunner to win the tie. It was a shocker coming home on the M4 with thick dense fog could just see the car in front. RIP Eric all ways a Rebel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
