    A QPR fan called Neil. It's on Facebook. One message said he was young. RIP.

    As a boy growing up in Brixton I remember when this was in the charts and you heard it everywhere, such a catchy tune and distinctive voice. Another of my childhood musical memories that sadly has lost it's creator...

    Both called Dean McKee - strange coincidence <laugh>

    There was an interview with his brother on one of the podcasts as well, very moving

    Sorry mate, that’s what I meant....the floral tribute seems to not be associated with Dean but someone else.
    Sorry for confusion

    Neil Whittmann, whose life revolved around the Rs
    Confirmed he had 3 young kids all QPR. Heartbreaking when you see him with his young family all in QPR tops with names.
    Nothing to do with Dean.

    I don't do Faceache - looks like two Rs fans buried same day - sad.

    Only knew about Dean McKee because of his poem and it being on the club twitter feed.

    RIP both indeed <rose>
