Title: Goodbye all
Post by: Fernhurst on October 10, 2011, 02:49:38 PM
Due to individual circumstances both personal and work related I will no longer be participating in this wonderful forum.

Thank you for putting up with me for these past years and good health and luck to you all.

Please be advised this decision is not related in any way to this forum or the terrific range of people who populate it.

It's easily the best Fulham FC forum by far (keep it that way) and I've enjoyed every minute

I hope you're right, Mr. the Swede. I've valued Mr. Fernhurst's contributions since my earliest days on this site. A gentleman, scholar, and Fulham all the live-long day.

If he's wrong, all the best to you sir. We'll try to keep the forum to your estimable standards in your absence.

Perhaps one of the mods can confirm as they will have had to have deleted Fernherst's account...?

Sad if true...

None of the Mods deleted his account. He would have had to do that himself. There is a way to confirm if a Mod had been involved. Each of you has the ability to remove your own account. Not sure why he deleted his account. He could have just left it there in hopes of a return. I will miss his contribution immensely and I hope he is ok.

Fernherst you'll be welcome whenever you come back  :54:

I hope all is well in Mr Fernhurst's world.

The ol' bugger will be greatly missed.

...this has come as a complete shock to me, Fernhurst has been on FoF from the beginning!!!

BTW, you can delete your own account as BestOfBrede, and ClevelandMo did, Fernhurst has done so but for different reasons, I hope somewhere down the line we get an explanation, either way I hope he and his family is in good health, and whatever circumstances has resulted in this decision changes again for the good.

Fernhurst, thank you for your positive comments about this forum, I am sure your wonderful character and charm will be missed, as will the Private Godfrey avatar. Good luck on whatever journey you now face...

Fenhurst is a guest because his post still exsists and so the forum has to apply something under his name, and he's not a member any more so it puts guest. No wind up here.

A big shame, I always liked his posts :(

 A poster that was always a joy to read and always a reason to have a glance at FOF just in case he had posted. I shall miss him. Hope all is well Private Godfrey.

Proud to be christened Private Walker in his original Dads Army.

Sad and a bit strange. I don't know any of you but feel I know many. If I was to quit, I think I would either 1/ just stop posting or 2/ give a reason. I guess he did that by stating reasons which must remain private. Anyway, I hope all is ok and good luck sir. :047:

Another difference between here and TIFF, here when people saying they're going, they do!

All the best to the departing poster, though if he can no longer read this it's a tad superfluous saying it.

Fernhurst is one of the originals and one of the politest and nicest people on the Fulham interweb. He has been posting in one place or another for as long as I can remember and I will certainly miss you sir.

I am sorry your circumstances have changed sir but totally understand why you are taking your leave now. I wish you a lot of good fortune in the future and hope we may see you again one day.

Thanks for the goodbye as well. I for one prefer to know when people have gone rather than just realising they have not posted for a while. Some of us come on here for the people as well as the football and it makes a difference when people leave.

All the best.  :54:

I won't say goodbye Mr Fernhurst, I'll just say see you next time. Would be quite sad to never see you post again.

...a day later and this still hasn't hit home. I am actually quite upset by this news, it is very sudden without any hint of problems which the FOF community may have been able to offer help with, as we have done before - or at the very least offer support. Sadly as he has deleted his own account we no longer have access to his e-mail address and so cannot enquire about his well being.

They say you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone, I'm truly going to miss him until hopefully his circumstances change.

Good luck Fernhurst.. (http://dadsarmy.retrospace.co.uk/bios/images/da_godfrey.jpg) 065.gif

Does anyone have Mr Fernhurst's email address or phone number in order to check up on him. A real gent among gents and I'd like to know that  he's ok too... :down_under:
Title: Re: Goodbye all
Post by: LBNo11 on December 04, 2011, 01:51:40 PM
...sadly, as he closed his own account all his records had gone before I could try to contact him and so we have no point of contact. I think in time, when he is ready Private Godfrey Fernhurst will make a comeback. All I do know is that I miss him, one of the 'Old FoFtempibles' in the early days...

You know whitey you always say the right thing... the next time I'm in hot water with the wife, would you mind helping me with my excusereason for having done what I did... Come on Ferny no need to leave forever surely he'll come back one day.
