I'm absolutely gutted to post this, but I'm sad to inform you all that Mick 'Papa Chaff' Chaffey passed away last night.
I've written this out a hundred times, but I still can't do the man justice. Mick was the nicest bloke you could ever meet and Dale through and through. Up until recently Mick could be seen at pretty much every Dale game, with his son David (Chaff), and whatever rabble he'd driven to the game this week. Always comically grumpy, always something to moan about, but above anything else always a top top bloke who was great to have in your company.
Cliche central but he will be missed. Massively.
Chaff has asked me to post because so many on here knew Papa Chaff, in fact he's probably given half of us a lift to an away game at some point.
RIP Papa Chaff. |  | | |  |

Just a reminder, my Dad's funeral is tomorrow at 1pm at Rochdale Crematorium. The procession is starting from 3 Rupert Street, Meanwood, for anyone who wants to follow it to the Crem and anyone wishing to do so is to be at that address at 12:30.
Everybody is more than welcome to join us all in a drink or 10 at Studds Bar. Hot food will be provided as well.
A few people have asked me about dress code, simply put, there isn't one. We'll be suited and booted for the funeral but I'll then be in my Dale shirt for the wake but but if people want to wear them for the funeral, no offence will be taken in the slightest.
We're hoping for a good turnout so lets give him the send off he deserves.
Thank you.
