My tribute to Newcastle Uniteds greatest ever fan John Alder, white shirt, black suit, long hair Followed Newcastle United everywhere Dedication beyond the call Gave his life for Newcastle United football Apart from Watford on the day his father departed He was at every single football math that Newcastle United started If I think back and search my memory His previous absence was Queens Park Rangers nineteen seventy three A gentle man who never hurt a living soul To support Newcastle United His only goal The reserves, the youths, the club was his passion he sat in his suit, John Alder fashion It was his rule never to drink before the match Every single second of the game he wanted to catch His knowledge of the Toon was second to none It unbelievable to think now he is gone Without doubt, the greatest Newcastle United football fan that has ever lived Please God, give him all the mercy that you have to give The news of today is so sad to say The manner in which he left to meet his maker Rest in peace, John Alder The Undertaker
