    Still hard to believe he passed away at just 33, it was amazing that he played for us, thought i'd look up some vids on youtube and came across this one, all Arsenal but David Rocastle you are missed.

    Knew he died in his thirties but 33 is absolutely no age - absolutely tragic! Without sounding too doom & gloom, you should always live your life now cos you never know whats round the corner

    One day you may fall off the bridge in to the small stream after a inexplainable gust of wind! Always the optimist me!

    Paul Groves who played for Oldham Athletic in the 70's was one of the first that i remember to die so young from cancer. Tragic. Grovsie was a class winger.

    No point worrying about what may happen in the future, he should just enjoy it now and cross that bridge when he comes to it.

    He was the lad with the massive Afro and the neck beads, played under Jimmy Frizzell.
