Thoughts with his family. Such sad news, one of the big characters of the team I supported in the 70's.

RIP

What an awful, terrible way to go and the terrifying thing is he almost certainly won't be the only footballer of that era to go like. Horrendous and terrifying when you heard Hayley talk about how he ended up

RIP Alzheimer's has got to be up there on the list of most horrible ways to go.

An old school defender - always played with his heart and enjoyed a drink. Dementia is an awful disease and players of his generation seemed to suffer more than most. FA needs to do more for ex players on this subject.

Rip Gordon!

Gutting to hear this. I remember his below reaction to when James McFadden scored that wonder goal in Paris for Scotland :D

Mentioned that before, genuinely one of my favourite goal reactions. I was watching the Scotland game, went for a goal kick to us, turned on SSN to see other scores and saw his reaction :lol: very quickly flicked our game back on! Brilliant.
