 The old ground The old ground I've got my best shots on filter there mate. Show me Tano. I did a little bit with, I did that. Good job mate. Last bit touch time. Yeah, we're part of the walk that's going on today in the course of the MNB. On behalf of Steamed Arby and Marcus Stewart, it's obviously the first leg of a three-day walk across the north-west, or across the north, sorry, to sort of raise funds for the MND Foundation. So what Steamed Arby did for this club as a player, how he represented it, it's important that we represent his sort of personality and character in the best way possible and obviously Marcus Stewart as well. We both played with him, so it's a fantastic cause for fantastic people. What he's going through now is quite inspiring if you think about what he's to endure, but certainly knowing before that and what he did, how he represented himself, the club, his family, and it was a quote on a picture that was up there on my first day that I saw and I absolutely loved it. We've changed the sort of changing room around a little bit, but that's the one thing that's stayed there constantly, it's stayed there, I think it's important, I think it will stay there forever because it should inspire every single individual that sees it and reads it. These guys who are fit athletes, you know, at the top of their game, and we also knew the lane genres, you passed away a couple of years ago from the same disease and it comes out of the blue, it hits people at random, it's little known about it as in the cause of it and the treatment of it, so hopefully today and the next few days and we'll just kick start a massive fundraising event too and bring necessary funds to help people like Marcus and Steven. Thank you. Yeah, we're here to support the Derby Marcus Stewart Rimmer Foundation for the MMD charity. As you can see, the support is incredible, trying to raise awareness to find a cure for this horrible disease. He's loved and supported by everybody from when he played and beyond that, so it's great that everybody's pulling together in the right direction to support his cause. It can affect anybody, whether you're a super fit or not, or you're an athlete or not, there's nobody safe from this disease, so it's so important that we find a cure as soon as possible. It's basically Mike and I were at Redwood events. We've been doing this since 2007, ranging these kind of events for all different kinds of charities, and we've raised nearly over a million pounds. Today is so special to us because we've brought the football and rugby community together and as you can see so far, it's going really, really well. People are upbeat and it's just amazing, it's just amazing what people are doing. And I'm so humbled and do you know what I mean? And people are so selfless for what they're doing and what they're offering. It's just phenomenal, phenomenal. So Mike and I knew it was something going to be like that, but to actually see it, it was just, well, it just brings shutters to you. It's mind blowing, mind blowing. People getting out of bed at whatever time to get to Valley Parade for that time and see the people for Steve and Dabby, for Marcus Stewart and also we've got Rob there and Steven, do you know what I mean? Which means a lot to the MMD community. And that's what today, this weekend's all about, raising that extra awareness. We want to do what Kevin Sinfield did in the rugby world to the football world, to come together and let's get some kind of, I don't know, whatever it takes to get this awful disease, the cure for it best we can, you know what I mean? And I think that this morning, the turnout and this full weekend, it just shows it for me, shows it, unbelievable. We're putting our legs and feet through the paces out there and we're taking part in the brilliant, brilliant cause that is the Dabby Rimmer MMD Foundation, obviously part of the MMD community to raise funds and awareness in regards to a disease that is so crippling and to see that today with Steven and Marcus and obviously Rob Burrow as well with his wife, it's inspiring and hopefully events like this that go all the way through until Sunday can raise that awareness and hopefully find a cure. Yeah, you just epitomise these like you've just said, everything that you want, not just in a footballer but in a person. You know that resilience, that spirit and the brilliant that the community has come together, the football community especially has come together to support him and Marcus and Steven in everything that they're doing, not just the walks but all the support and it's great just to be part of it and being asked to support in that way. Yeah, do you know it's amazed me actually how many people from the footballing community have turned out today. We've seen so many familiar faces and we've seen some big names as well at the Valley Parade right the way through to Toulon Road here and I know that more are joining as the walk goes on and the next stops the John Smiths so there'll be more people joining for that and I think it just reminds everybody that we all have our frustrations and moans and groans about football but seeing Steven and the fact that he's got on his hands, it really brings everything into perspective and I think that's why so many people resonate with it because as you say Sam, he's such a big part in what was so good at Bradford City for such a large period of time and he was a true warrior on the field and I think now people are repaying him for what he did in a Bradford City shirt. I stress illness and that's probably not documented enough and his awareness and obviously vital funds to one find a cure and obviously to help out the vulnerable people that need equipment and stuff. Well obviously Steven played at Bradford and played at Bradford with him on that right hand side he was right back, I was right wing and we had a great partnership on the field but also off it it was personal you know and you can see with the amount of lads that have turned up for him today the type of team spirit and team that we had when we played at Bradford and you know if we can do anything to help Steven we would we'd walk to the end of the world for him if we could so this is just the beginning and we hope that there's snowballs and we try and raise as much money and awareness as we can. Probably both character you know one of my best mates in football I've already said that you know I was with him for six years so we had some great times together, some tough times as well which you know you do in the battle of pitch but more importantly he was a great friend off the pitch and I can't speak highly enough for him the courage and the bravery that he's going through and you know we're just doing a small part to try and raise as much as we can like so. Sat next room in Jester in Bradford, Sat next room in Jester in Poulton so many good memories in the changing room things that people don't see because he was just such a good teammate so loyal, such a loyal friend so yeah there's so many but it would probably be Chelsea away obviously Chelsea away was a special moment I think in the club history and yeah the journey back Steven sung a lot of songs on the coach and I think a lot of players remembered that today I've got plenty to be honest but it'd have to be Chelsea because obviously you're seeing the videos after the way he parties there's like nothing else you know he's the ultimate pro in and around the training ground but you know when he wants to lay his head down he can have a good time and yeah so we had some great times you know like so we put the working on the pitch and then off the pitch we can have some good times and that's what we did then Steven not just saying it because we're doing this for this cause but Steven you ask anyone around you know he's the kindest person you'll ever meet who'd do anything for you a real selfless individual and the same with Marcus I haven't known Marcus long but they're the exact same they're the real heroes you know we're walking we're supporting but they're the ones putting themselves out there and putting their private life out there in the public domain to help other people and look we'll raise a lot of awareness with this walk and that's fantastic but ultimately we want to find a cure and the last 15 months the MND community's been fighting to get the data from the Miracles trial and that's what we really want to happen from this we're waiting to hear from consortium members the MNDA and doctors to know the results of the Miracle trial so we're really hoping that after this we get some form of feedback from them All right here we go These are these hybis jacket All right Of course it's a little cute filter Certainly fans and our success in that era every single game, every training session never mind every game we're very good by it and a great lad as well and yeah got so much time for him and you know it's great to be here today to support his foundation you know he's typical of Steve and you know when he was diagnosed with it straight away he was thinking of other people with his terrible illness and he's done everything he can to raise awareness and money and yeah it's an amazing turnout today he's just up and looking around you know he's joined the Wiggins Ground today myself and Steve Parking and some of the other staff from Wrexham as well and you know it's nice to be able to play our part Events like this one this weekend take a lot of effort and a lot of sacrifice from a number of people I'd like to give a couple of special mentions Firstly I'd like to mention the core team of walkers and the support team who took part in the whole three days Like I said, events like this take a lot of time and sacrifice and the core team and the support team have been incredible completing 178 miles over the last three days with maybe a few extra miles added onto that total for those that can't read maps and got lost The team has been made up of people who have been personally affected by MND and people who want to support the fight and make a difference and that's special I'm sure the last three days have been tough both physically and emotionally and I'm sure you're looking forward to a good night's sleep I agree that what you've achieved this weekend as a team is incredible and you should all be very proud You've helped raise awareness and funds which will help make a real difference to MND so we'd like to say a massive thank you to everyone involved This one takes a lot of organising and a lot of people have helped to make this event possible but I'd like to give a special mention to two men, Mike Wilson and Steve Wood patient since 2019 This weekend takes so much planning and organising Mike, Woody, on behalf of the Foundation and the MND community I'd like to say thank you both for everything you do and the MND community are lucky to have you both fighting our corner and MND is in a much better place thanks to you both Lastly, I'd like to thank everyone who's here today and everyone who's taken part in the walk of the last three days and generously donated We can't thank you all enough for your support Your support is what helps us make a real impact on MND So thank you to everyone and let's keep making a difference together Thank you
