Awful news for Surrey today, both before my time as players but Jackman was a very good commentator who you could tell loved the game and South Africa.

They’ll all be out by close of play today

George Blake, spy for Soviets. He'll not be missed.

He always had an old face.

I thought he was devilishly good looking.
He captained England once only.

Charles Campion, food critic - the Master Chef guy, RIP

George Blake, spy for Soviets. He'll not be missed.

Thought he'd gone ages ago to be honest.
A sordid character who can burn in hell.

So sad.
A great manager who should have won the big one.
Very sad day for the Arabs.

It seems so long ago since we had great characters like Jim McLean in the Scottish game, a fiercely competitive manager who got the best out of his players and built a fantastic side at Tannadice.
You certainly wouldn't want to face him if you'd given anything less than 100%.
A sad day for Scottish football, what a guy, RIP

Perhaps someone else has mentioned it. But isn't it going to soon be everyday some celebrity of some sort dies?

I feel like we're just starting to see it. With the advent of tv, now with the internet, social media, youtube. Everyday some minor random celebrity is going to die.

Merry Christmas lol.

Damn I ignored this. I don't follow wrestling really close so I didn't recognize the name.


This guy isn't only from the same city as me, the same suburb. I've actually randomly met him, my brother has and a few of my coworkers. Shopped at the store I run a couple times.

This was during his WWE time. He was very quiet, reserved, seemed like a good dude. No arrogance. That's a shame. RIP
