    That's a pity, lovely guy. Didn't look great last time I saw him on TV.

    I don't often comment on football managers , as I don't really know that much about the game .

    R.I.P Gerard , you always came across as a decent person .

    He should be considered a club legend. The club was going nowhere until him and we were living off our history. He came in, revamped the whole club from top to and bottom and brought success.

    RIP

    I would hope the club will be offering any support that it can to his family at this time.

    Offer to Cover the funeral costs or summin I dunno if that may be seen as vulgar or inappropriate but I'd hope we have reached out in some way.

    I don’t think he died a poor man mate. Much more fitting And meaningful to honour him by ensuring his legacy is remember forever.....whatever that means.

    Sad news that is.

    A lot of my memorable school years were with him in charge.

    Miss the Hypia/ Henchoz combination at CB and of course the cup runs.
