Hi Brian. Just a brief note to congratulate you on behalf of Wycombe Wanderers Trust on your award announced today.
Your contribution to football has been immense and makes the award totally justified.
I hope we can welcome you to Adams Park again very soon.

Brian was quick to reply:

Hi Trevor How very kind of you to write, it only reflects what countless other people have done for ‘our’ game and most of my life was spent around WW!
I was at the Oxford game and looking forward to going to Villa Park, sorry to Adams Park, next week!!
Kindest regards and all success to your endeavours in 2016.
Brian
