Mark Lazarus has died. The club informed us he was very ill last week. So not unexpected.
So sad one of my original heroes.
RIP Mark...and thank you for the memories.
One of our greats, he was an integral part of the club when Dad first started bringing me to matches, a true stalwart. I fondly remember the 1967 League Cup Final at Wembley when Dad and I were crying in our beers 0-2 down at half-time wondering how we could ever get back in the match against 1st Division WBA.

I believe that means, from a cursory glance of Wikipedia, only four of the eleven are with us- Hazell, Marsh, Allen, Morgan. Hopefully some are around for the 60th anniversary.
Yes, both of the Morgan twins are still with us, our double trouble on the wings. Dave Clement was a sad one. He and Ian Gillard (still around?) paired up as excellent full backs.
