Jeez that is awful. Way too young. RIP was doing OK as a lower league manager after a decent playing career and always came across well.

Terrible news, hard to believe such a reatively young - and healthy, you'd imagine - man should go under those circumstances.


On a lighter note, I remember the old joke about the Spurs keeper having such a good right foot he could kick the ball as far as Edinburgh.
As Arsenal fans retorted, their keeper was even better, his kick could reach Overmars.....

Terrible news. It always surprises me how many ex athletes suffer cardiac arrest at a reasonably young age. I suppose managers go through a fair amount of stress, but presumably he was on average, a very fit 49 year old.

Terribly sad. He was a very successful footballer who was prepared to work hard and stay in the game at lower levels.

Tragedy for his family and friends. RIP.
