    RIP Ray - Always had time to speak to the fans and a genuine nice bloke - Him and Denis led us to our first FA Cuo Final.
    He only played 3 times for us, and I was lucky enough to see 2 of them <peacedove>

    Sad news. RIP Mr Wilkins. Taken too young. Enjoyed listening to him on Talksport in recent years, vast and credible knowledge and experience. An old adversary to Leeds in his playing days but also one who represented his country.

    Was lucky to meet him and have a chat with him whilst in Doha, he was a true gent, spoke sense and got your attention.

    RIP Ray Wilkins

    Not many england internationalists were warmly received in Scotland, especially on both sides of the religious divide. He was.

    Came across as very knowledgeable about football, but unlike the majority, was diplomacy personified when discussing individuals, and yet still made his point.

    Sadly missed.
