Stan sad update

What a player. What a guy. The sort of star the ordinary man on the street could identify with. He was one of us unlike so many of today’s foreign and distant superstars.

 

Happy 70th Birthday Stan!

 

Sad every time I read those articles about Stan.

 

The saddest thing about Alzheimer’s is that it goes on for, in some cases, many years. People become defined by the disease, it’s all they are remembered for. Hopefully Stan will be remembered for who he was for the vast majority of his life.

 

We’ll remember him as Stan the man

 

one of my neighbours is suffering from this awful disease, she is only 59. I can't imagine what her poor husband is going through at the moment. Just so sad

 

That man defined my football childhood ... can’t help but still see a twinkle in his eyes.
Merry Christmas Stan

 

Another few days and then the Stan calendar goes up in the kitchen

 

Found these clips of the Sky series 'Time of our Lives', a perfect title in this case. Some great anecdotes and showing just why Stan was such a fans' favourite. How much would those three players be worth these days? We were truly blessed to be around to see them at their peak. Enjoy...
