Kevin Sheedy has bowel cancer

[Daithi]

Get well soon Kev, a childhood hero of mine for Everton & Ireland

From the little I know, Bowl cancer is one of the more treatable ones. Di Niro had it a few years ago and made a full recovery. Best of luck to you, Kevin. I'm a paddy myself and remember his goal against England in the 1990 world cup.

Christ, good luck Sheedy. Terrible news.

I lost my Grandad to bowel cancer, I hope you can come out of it okay.

Kevin Sheedy was one of the classiest footballers to ever grace Goodison Park .... what a left foot. Never renowned for defensive capabilities though, but then again he didn't need to .... he was a match winner with the number of goals he scored. Signing him from across the park was another of Howard Kendall's master strokes. Keep strong and get well soon Kevin.

A boyhood idol of mine. Hopefully the treatment goes well.

You are a true Everton Legend.

Only heard this when I got home from work tonight. Sad news, but hopefully he'll beat this. Superb player with a tremendous left foot. Enjoyed watching him score some great goals in that magnificent team of the mid eightees. Get well soon.

No one deserves this insidious disease. All the best Sheeds, you have all of Everton behind you.

 

[Neiler]

Terrible news, one of my all time favourite players, so many great nights, really down earth unassuming lad as well.

We're all with you Kev.

[tonka1878]

Sad news but hopefully they caught it early. He'll have the thoughts of every Evertonian with him.

Gutted to hear this. Sheedy was my first everton hero.

Good luck and get well soon Sheeds, you can beat this.
