Lorimer in Hospice

Seems he's been I'll for some time, good player shame he played for Leeds, bet one of his biggest regrets was not beating Monty on 5.5.73.

Remember he was reputed to have the hardest/fastest kick in football - if I recall correctly the late great George Mulhall gave him a run for his money.

I’m old enough to remember him playing for Leeds in the 1973 FA cup final and him being a famous football player in the day.
I want to say get well soon but as he is in a hospice I don’t think that’s going to happen. I just hope his final days/weeks are as pain free as they can be.

Shots were measured at over 70mph if I recall correctly, still couldn’t beat our Monty though ,if he had scuffed it it would have gone in he was so close to goal .
