That makes tough reading 45 years old and a sudden heart attack. These are fit footballers that have spent most of the career being match fit. Crying shame - RIP Paul
 
I only came across one of his talks the other week in the Guardian. Very sad news. RIP
Dunno about listening to Bob Dylan at the end mind.

Begs a question though, dunnit?

A discussion that me and my younger brother had, in a very drunken state, last Christmas.

He's sixteen years younger than me but we had common ground. Joy Division mainly.


On a similar topic, I woke up in the middle of the night, last night, and Don't Fear The Reaper was playing in a loop in my head and I couldn't get rid of it.


Scary.


Especially when I realised it was The Beautiful South version and not the original.

I'm not sure a 5 year old should be getting pissed.
 
Someone that I'm sure some of you will be familiar with, Colin Eagle (aka Fly) has died.

He was a regular at The Star in Willerby during my misspent youth.

I spent a few nights with him in Timber Dock in his later years.
Any idea what finally caught up with him.?
