Desperately sad news that puts things firmly into perspective. Football is rightly secondary when these things happen. Life is fragile and precious. Thoughts and prayers with his wife and precious children.
Heavy metal star Ozzy Osbourne has died, just weeks after reuniting with his Black Sabbath bandmates and performing a huge farewell concert for fans. In a statement, his family said: "It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love." RIP Ozzy, a one off, Great performer
Apparently the reunion show raised $190 million US for charity. I saw Ozzy in 2012 queen's golden jubilee that got me into music and then him in Black Sabbath twice since then. Great performer and showman, despite his image he always seemed a gentle type of man RIP I was reminded of some lyrics from A National Acrobat when I heard of his death: Just remember love is life And hate is living death Treat your life for what its worth And live for every breath Looking back I've lived and learned But now I'm wondering Here, I wait and only guess What this next life will bring
Saw that Hulk Hogan passed away from suspected heart issues on Thursday. Never into wrestling myself, but he transcended that into a kinda crazy cult figure. July isn't looking food for the maverick celebrities! RIP
Just seen on another colourful site that Bunny Larkin has just passed away. I admit I never saw him play, but he came to us from Birmingham in 1960 and stayed just two years, scoring in all his debuts for us (including cups). Returned to live in Norfolk for the rest of his life, like so many of our retired. RIP Bunny. Edit:- he also played for Watford after us, so cup night may be a good time to remember him.
