If I may, I would rather we have a minute's applause or silence before kick-off, when everyone's attention is on that and nothing else.

Nick - I made that suggestion (the 56th minute) in my WhatsApp group, (which Mikey was also a member of), this afternoon.

Cornick and Browne start

Thanks for the link, Nick

I am sure that the big knobs upstairs will decide how we should honour our friend and I guess that will be at the next home league game. Doesn’t feel right to ignore it tonight, surprised that there hasn’t been any suggestion for applause in the 56th minute or so”there’s only one Mikey T” or maybe I have missed it.

Trigger - Mikey T finished on 2,010, unfortunately.

No doubt there will be plenty of opportunities to honour the man going forwards, but I've planned a get together in the first instance, in Central Wimbledon. It doesn't need to be sombre, and it needn't be sober. Just as a chance to collectively take in the news for now: [Link]

It would be great for the club to honour him in some way - name an award or part of a stand or something

Anyone know whether there’s any kind of record or register for consecutive games attended? 2000 is some incredible achievement.

The Barnet game this evening is going to be a sombre occasion first time since 1989 that no MT at the game

Posted by someone on WhatsApp "The only good thing to come out of this tragic death is that MT is now immortalised in Wimbledon folk law (both WFC & AFCW) - he will always be remembered in his prime and not as a doddering old sod (like me) - it will be many decades before anyone emulates his attendance record (if ever) and highly unlikely that they will combine that with his photographic memory - in a way it’s a bit like rock stars who die young - they are always remembered in their prime, just as MT will be."

Would be good to have a Mikey T "best bit's" on a loop in museum as part of a football sound track/video. He did a lot for the club and its fans and deserves a permanent memorial, I just happen to believe that sort of thing would capture the essence of the man. Thoughts anybody?

56 is too young for anyone to go :-( i don't think I ever met Mikey T in person but he was so central to everything Wimbledon for so long. And of course that moment...Ronan Curtis, the ballboy and Mikey T. He is cemented in Wimbledon history for ever.

Absolutely terrible so young 😞🥲

Mikey was 56.

So sad about Mikey - how old was he?

Thx CW

Postie-in theory yes but in practice they often can’t be bothered to do that especially if you come at a busy time

Can you get tick for the Arsenal game in the shop rather then get them online

That Mirror piece on Mikey T is lovely from Sam :)

Aww. All the best Sam, if you still read here.

Padds, his husband. They have a gorgeous son called Milo.

Oh, we wondered if that was him Meadow. He seems to have double-barrelled his surname. Maybe got married and added his wife's. Nice article. Glad we're going to Plymouth on Saturday and will be with fellow sad Wombles.

OI, the writer is a Wimbledon supporter. He used to post here as Sam the Don.

Lovely that The Mirror picked it up, having interviewed him not long ago.
