    Really sad news. RIP Eddie.

    I can't believe he was only 60?

    One of my greatest ever stories involved Eddie the cat Blackburn.
    Made me well up a bit this news.

    I saw it on Hull City fans forum this morning and can confirm it is true, as his son in law confirmed it. Died suddenly yesterday afternoon.

    Sad news.

    Very sad news . Think he was our keeper when were relegated in 1978 . For a keeper he was small when you look at the giants between the sticks today . Don't who he went to after us .
