PARRY GORDON HAS PASSED AWAY ! RIP TO A TRUE WARRINGTON GREAT !

One of the best, a true legend and one of the greatest scrum halves to ever don the primrose and blue. Sad loss....

What an absolute tragedy - he can't have been much more than 70. A fantastic servant to the club whose rewards in the shape of trophies came late in his career. One of the all time great Wire srum halves and another of whom it can be asked 'why did he not play for GB?'

What a shock, I witnessed Parrys last few years of such a long carreer at the Wire, such a tremendous servant to the club .

Condolences to his family.

How sad RIP Parry Gordon.

RIP

God bless you Parry Gordon a true Gent and a great rugby player

This great player was only 64 according to WGuardian.
I am really saddened by this news.
I loved that man as a player, and he loved the primrose and blue.
RIP

Very sad.

Great player and probably the best uncapped scrum half I have ever seen.
A good Wigan lad as well.

R.I.P.

Sincere condolences to all his family and friends

I didn't know Parry personally but saw him play on many occasions. The way he played the game I always assumed he was a true Gentleman, a very fine player who for some reason never got the international recognition that he should have. I believe he did win a cap against PNG but stand to be corrected RIP

RIP Parry. Watched him from almost the start of his Wire career and he was my favourite player until his retirement. Fantastic acceleration, elusiveness and an ability to tackle way above his weight were just some of his many attributes as a player. A true gentleman and Wire legend; condolences to his family and friends.

Very sad news,
A True Wire Legend.

Such awful news. I had the pleasure of watching Parry play throughout the 70s and up to the end of his career in the early 80s, and he was a great scrum-half. He was a gentleman too. When I was a kid I used to get the players' autographs when they arrived at Wilderspool before games, and Parry was always happy to sign and say hello. The term 'club legend' gets over-used, but it applies 100% in the case of Parry Gordon. RIP Parry, and sincere condolences to the family.

Saw Parry play against us many times at the Boulevard,He was the type of loyal player every club needs.He played in the era of proper rugby, not the sanitised version we play now.R.I.P. Parry,you were a good un.

RIP Parry. A true Wire legend!

This is very sad news to hear, my condolances go to his family and friends. Your memory will live on Parry as great sportsmen are never forgotten.

RIP Parry

One of my first memorys of watching the Wire was seeing him play and scamper about the field. A great loss.

God Bless Parry R.I.P

Parry was a superb player for the Wire and will be sadly missed by everybody who had the good fortune to see him play for the club over a 20 year period.

True gentleman and legend.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this very sad time.

R.I.P Parry, you will never be forgotten.
