Martin Quinton Aka Walrus

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Didnt know him but have seen him around before - RIP, always sad to lose a fellow Gooner.

Flash - just noticed Jam put 1961-2012 in his post so only just 50, too young :(

Spoke to him a few times, saw him on the clock end terraces and in the seats - as well as many away games.

Makes me feel sad.

R.I.P.

RIP. As did many others, often saw him at aways. Seems like he knew a lot of people, judging by the response.

Didn't know him to speak to - but recognize him form when I used to do lots of away trips in the .late eighties and early nineties.

RIP
