    Another sad loss far too early in a year that has seen so many leave us.

    A good manager, and a very likeable guy, such a shame.

    He had some serious heart problems a few years ago I seem to remember. Football management isn't the job for someone with a weak ticker.
    RIP <rose>

    He will be remembered with great fondness especially in Liverpool as he was the perfect gentleman. R.I.P. Gerard and my thoughts are with his family and friends.

    Seemed like a genuinely nice guy, and the heartfelt tributes paid by the ex players like Michael Owen, Ian Rush, Steven Gerrard and co, and even SAF, bear out what a thoroughly decent bloke Houllier was

    RIP <rose>
