I know well the posting of the man under both of his pseudonyms... Extremely intelligent opinions and very knowledgeable about our club... I wondered why he had not been posting recently and am sad to hear this news. As has been said already, RIP and my thoughts to his loved ones and those who had had the pleasure :crest:

Very sad news, a good contributor to this site for a number of years, and 50 is a very young age.

I can only echo what's been said before and send my kindest wishes to Sweeney's/GPH's loved ones. 50's far too young.

Just seen this sad news.

I always liked GPH’s posts and one day posted that I was sad he had gone. Sweeney then sent me a pm saying it was him and we had a nice exchange. He was one of the best posters on here for years.

Wish I could’ve shaken his hand now.

RIP mate. You enriched us.

There are just some names that are synonymous with the early days of KUMB and Sweeney was most definitely one of those.

We never knowingly meet these people in the flesh, but yet their passing can still have a profound effect.

A respected poster who will be missed by us all, but more so by his friends and family. Thoughts are with them at this time.

Sleep well brother.
