Horrible disease, all the best to him and his family.

 

[Walken]

I wonder how many of the modern day footballers realise how much they owe this guy

 

[Kurt.]

Revolutionalised football in his own way..... Respect to him and thoughts to his family xx

 

[ToffeeMark]

Met him at an awards event in London, maybe 12 years ago. Surprisingly tall man.

 

[Groucho]

Poor fella.

Horrible thing, that is.

 

[ijjysmith]

That is sad, for him and his family.

Some of my first ever football memories are seeing him, Trevor Brooking and Des Lynham give England scores out of 10 after a game.

 

[degsy]

wouldn't even wish it on a kopite

 

[tommye]

Sad news. Revolutionised football with his forward thinking and determination to see it through.

An iconic personality who was the face of football for many years.

Thoughts and prayers to him and his family.

I can't coz i'm at work but can someone stick the Youtube video of him on Fantasy Football League - so funny.

He is a footballing legend that man, sad news

 

[neil999]

i remember him being a bit of a figure of fun, but at least he made interesting comments unlike the rehearsed stuff from hansen et al

 

[bluejock]

A pantomime villain to Scotland fans, didn't always take it well but latterly seemed to enjoy the ribbing and took the joke well.

A bloody shame for anyone to have to go through and you have to feel for his family. Must be awful to watch a loved one suffer like that.

 

[Eggs]

...remember him running down from the stands to actually be a substitute linesman in a top flight game. I echo the very appropriate comments already posted.

 

[Whitebootman]

True football legend and a great football man. sad news.

 

[micknick]

As others have said horrible horrible disease. Best wishes to him and his family
