Sad news…. From footage I’ve seen of him I reckon he was one of the most naturally gifted goal scorers of all time

RIP

Like most i always watched Saint and Greavsie, none of the modern equivilaents are as good, too young to have seen him play, legend of the game loved by fans of most clubs RIP

 

[Willie Thorne]

Loved a nip of whisky before a game.

RIP.

81 is a good age, but nevertheless, not the story you want to hear on a Sunday morning.

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

It's a funny old life, but he left his mark no doubt.

I used to work with a huge Barnet fan who knew Greaves from his time there in the late seventies. He was getting his drinking under control and turning out for Barnet in midfield in his late thirties.

My colleague couldn't speak highly enough of him, absolute class on and off the pitch.
