Top football man, as they say, charismatic and synonymous with Euro 96. Great coach here and abroad. RIP

Sorry to hear this sad news.
Probably in part due to my age at the time, but Euro 96 remains my favourite tournament watching England.

RIP Terry. Remember him playing for Spurs and QPR, then as co-author of a football book called ‘they used to play on grass’ and also co-writer of Hazel as Bosscat has pointed out. My third favourite England manager behind the sirs Alf and Bobby.

Just seen this. Damn good player too in the 1960s and 70s - and he made a hell of a difference to England when he replaced Graham Taylor. Always a shame that he was unable to continue in that role.
A bit of a Cockney spiv undoubtedly, but a great football man.

RIP Terry Venables.
Great player and manager especially his time as England manager.
The Euro 96 game v Holland was one of the greatest England performances ever.

RIP, El Tel.
I know that distance lends enhancement and all that, but he seemed to be a manager with passion and sincerity - not an automaton dependent on metrics.

RIP, I remember reading an article that when he got the Barcelona job he pulled a couple of cigars out from his sock and gave one to the Barcelona president during the interview and that got him the job.
England were a joy with him.

RIP-one of the finest and most popular managers of our country-with his own brand of really entertaining football. Suspect he was an excellent after dinner speaker too-the master of the one liners

One of Footballs truely great characters.
Remember him as a very good player with Spurs & QPR & as a top manager.
Transformed the England side, but didn't suit the Suits.
R.I.P Terry.
Thanks for some great memories.
