A west ham version of Mick Lyons. Not the greatest but one of the first in your team. Would run through a brick wall for your club.

….cricketer Robin Smith aged 62.

Not the Judge! Gutted to hear this, apparantly he has had a lot of struggles in the last few years.

What a fearless player of pace he was.

Robin Smith was one of the greats of the modern game and a complete legend at Hants. A brilliant batter and captain.
RIP and thank you Judge.

Loved watching RA Smith play for England in the early nineties. Absolute powerhouse with a bat.

RIP

Very sad. What a player and human being. Yes he wasn't great against spin, but the way he was treated was poor. I was growing up and getting to cricket when he was a light in a dull era of English cricket, alongside Thorpe who also had his demons. I am saddened to hear this.

A true shining light of talent in a very poor decade.

Top bloke as well.

Remi Moses RIP

Sad news, decent little player, rumour had it at the time that Man U put him in the team so that Moses could get a cross to Jordan.

Funny quote from Tommy Docherty when Remi signed for Utd. back in 1981

“Half a million for Remi Moses. You could have got the original Moses and the tablets for less”

Remi Moses RIP

Didn't realise he retired at 28 due to injuries.
