Such devastating news and such a fantastic lad. He didn't need any reason to be friendly to you other than that you were a fellow Alty fan, and his devotion to the club was incredible.
To me Mark was as much a leader as Kingy, Carmody or Parkinson. If it wasn't for Mark and one or two others the club would have died in the 90s and several times since, but it was his passion and his determination to represent the club home and away on the terraces, behind the scenes and to the board that helped to keep the fires burning through some very dark days.
This is the saddest news I have heard in a long time - I will miss him as will everyone - and my heart and condolences go out to all of his family.
