Hello everyone,
Nine days a go our Dad Andrew died from a heart attack. Whilst our Dad wasn't a regular poster on this forum, and indeed when he did not everyone agreed with him he never the less loved our football club with all his heart. No matter how badly Derby were playing Dad always looked forward to attending games both home and away. Indeed at times Dad would go to extraordinary lengths to watch our team and this has rubbed off on us, his children. Indeed because of our wonderful Dad three of us have become lifelong Derby fans despite having been born in London and we are now working on our half brother who is a Dortmund fan.
We just thought you ought to know, that’s all.
Tim, Tom, Tilly and Florence.
Up the Rams and always believe.
Thanks.
RIP Richmond Ram

Very sorry to hear about your dad . I always wanted to meet the the custodian of the Glastonbury Rams flagpole, but it's reassuring to know it is in dedicated hands going forward . The messages on here show how much he meant to Rams fans all over the world RIP Richmond Ram .

I have only ever been a viewer on ja606 but this tragic news has shocked me into my first post. My thoughts are with you all at this time.

I have followed 606 from the BBC days and have found it a vital part of my Derby County family, particularly as I have lived away from Derby for 15 years. I never have met your dad, or many that share their views with us all on this forum. I do, however, feel saddened by his passing as if I had shared part his life, the DCFC part. God bless you all and RIP Richmond Ram

I cannot post a link, but do a google search for: Tim, Tom, Tilly and Florence richmondcommu
It looks like Andrew lived on until 2018 and died again?

I don't know who you are or why you've decided to come on here snitching, but you DO have a point; there was definitely another person identifying as Richmond claiming the same children and allegiances.

What does this mean...? Fck knows. What it doesn't mean that 'our' Richmond was a fake, and with his history of firstly BBC 606 and then ja606 in addition to flying the flag at Glasto etc then I'm inclined to believe the veracity of our poster.
How and why this other account ever existed I don't know or particularly care; there are undoubtedly some twisted people out there in Internetland, but I know whoever was behind the 606 Richmond Ram accounts was a genuine fan; the rest is immaterial.
Sorry if this isnt the level of outrage you'd hoped to whip up with your sniper post
