Missed this one earlier.
Nicky Booth gutsy little boxer that could have gone into better things. Sadly lost his fight with his own demons at only 40 years old.

 

[Otis]

Produced some fabulous songs.

As in two smooth Booth?

Used to love watching him and his brother box. From Nottingham if memory serves me right.

If I wanted to see a whale exploding, I would just watch Ann Widdecombe losing her temper on Question Time.

She is up there with Norman Tebbit for being a complete asshole on the right hand side of politics.

Just seen this on MSN. Never as good as Parky, though!

Don't know why, but I just had a strange premonition about Jimmy Greaves. Had to check to see if he was still alive!

Did you take his pulse?

Mate at work said I should’ve put Jimmy Greaves on the list.

Greavsie is still alive although he has been really ill after a stroke. I wrote an article on him for Late Tackle magazine, and the editor who is a Spurs fan sent me Jimmy's last autobiography as a payment. I met Greavsie once and one of my favourite ever non Coventry City players.

Seems he was only diagnosed with cancer three weeks ago.

Seems he was only diagnosed with cancer three weeks ago.

yeah, I read that, I knew someone who had a similar story though, died only a matter of weeks after diagnosis.

Capt Tom Moore looks like he’ll be gone in the morning

That’s sad. Bless him

The family are at his bedside. Is this only allowed at end of life situations?

Usually. They don’t normally allow it with covid patients but I’d suspect they’ve made an exception.
I’m shocked that they went on a family holiday to the Caribbean over Christmas with him. Seems irresponsible to me in the current times

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

Hows he caught covid? Hes been at home being treated for pneumonia for about 3 weeks?


EDIT: fuck it, I'm gonna say it.......Anyone else feel its massively unfair that he gets visitors when tens of thousands of "normal" folk have been denied the same?

I agree. Going through long flights (even with a mask on) and extreme changes of temperatures at his age sounds like a recipe for catching anything going.

Peter Hindley played for City in the 70's built-in the George Curtis mold. R I P

Hal Holbrook - American actor. 95.

Seen him in so many films, especially those from the 70's and 80s.

All the President's Men, The Fog, Wall Street, Magum Force, The Firm.

Very talented actor.

Just saw this tweet, which i think was so well put - not too saccharine, but touching all the same.
Well done, whoever you are

Sad for captain Tom... 100 though... Some age
