Nick had been ill with Bowel cancer for a while now.
His son Ben let me know he'd moved to a hospice last weekend and I just learnt from Ben that he died this afternoon. He asked me to post this message.
As Ben (@livebythesword ) said, he's now at peace.
Nick was loud and funny and cared about things and loved Charlton and loved his family and loved his friends and was just a good bloke to know although you were never far away from him taking the pee out of you, that was Nick.
There are lots of stories to be told by the many people on here who knew him.
He turned 60 on 5 January and @tracey organised a video from Jason Euell wishing him happy birthday and thanking him for his years of support.
Thankfully, he lived long enough to see the birth of his first grandchild at the end of last year. I think maybe he hung on for that.
A very sad day.
Gonna miss you mate.

He who has gone, so we but cherish his memory, abides with us, more potent, nay, more present than the living man.
Rest in peace, Nick.8 -
Oh bollocks. I know he'd been mentioning his various trips up to the hospital for a while now, and he didn't look in great shape in that photo with his new grandson recently, but this is still a shock. RIP Nick, and sorry for your loss @LiveByTheSword

Very sorry to hear this, thoroughly nice chap.

Ben (his son), just phoned me.
We have lost one of the real top draw contributors from the forum.
I got to know him well over the last few years and can vouch for everything Ben has mentioned. I just wish I had known him for much longer.
To be in his company was always intriguing, super intelligent, vocal, amusing, knowledgeable……but most of all thoughtful, generous and kind to those in his company.
How wonderful it was that he got to see his first grandchild Rupert, born just very recently. Ben said that he reckons he was hanging on just for that event…..I wouldn’t doubt that for one moment. He will carry on the family name too.
In short, I never heard anyone have a bad word to say about him and indeed I never expected to.
Goodbye fella…..you were a real diamond and diamonds are forever…..aren’t they.
RIP….Nick….RIP.

Oh that's so sad.
We were hoping to have a drink together as staying at the same hotel for the Fleetwood match but we ducked out due to the petrol shortage. SO sorry to have missed that opportunity.
Sleep tight, Nick.1 -
Christ almighty... RIP @Addickted0

That is such sad news, I had noticed that he hadn't posted for a while.
My sincere condolences to Nick's family.
Rest in peace Nick, you will be very much missed on this forum.1
