Dennis Lepine

Post by Rocket »

Bill Gardener has posted on WHO that Dennis is very ill in hospital - not Covid, but apparently not good. I don't know Dennis, but I know he is dear to many West Ham fans, so thought people on here might appreciate knowing this.

Dennis is one of the nicest people I know and instrumental in cementing our away support.

He has a lovely family and many friends and all our thoughts and hopes are with him.

Going to Liverpool by coach a few weeks back seems another world :(

What Doc said.
Dennis has done a fantastic service for West Ham fans for a long long time, and long may it continue.
Get well very soon.

As for Liverpool, you are right, it's like another lifetime.

Very sad news, known Dennis a good few years, only just seen this.

Too many great away days with him, Bill and the rest of the Hornchurch mob. Even when we lose, there's always something happening.

Speedy recovery Dennis,

I wish all the best to Dennis and his family and friends.
I think its fair to say that west ham fans have each others backs, lots of us the fan base is as if not more important than the football.
Bill, chas and dennis always willing to help and people like them make us what we are.

I know Dennis fairly well and am so shocked to read this. He is such a nice bloke and like Bill Gardner he bleeds claret and blue. God, I hope he pulls through.

I don't know Dennis personally as I drive to away games but I know who he is and am aware he does an incredible amount for fellow supporters on the away runs.He is defo in the "never misses" category , and someone who is spoken of very highly by supporters.

Best wishes to him.
