Indeed, when I first saw the news, I didn't realise that it was brain cancer that had taken him.

That is really sad. I was fortunate enough to see him playing in the great Ipswich Town side of the early 80s where there were some fantastic European nights. I was a student in Colchester and Paul was seen out in the town sometimes.

What a player. The first Ipswich game I saw was against Manchester United and they had several players on him having lost 6 0 there the season before.

I always felt privileged to have been able to watch them at Portman Road at that time. RIP Paul and thanks for the memories.

Went to Ipswich in the early eighties when we lost 2-0 in the FA Cup, honestly can't remember if he played that day, my memory isn't what it used to be.

RIP

He did, if I recall right he was the player who got fouled for the free kick when I think it was Thyson who struck it bang on past Batchy.

A player I really liked and clearly these days that’s no age, very sad.

Scored 13 goals for England.  I remember him as a good striker and key to the many successes for Ipswich.  Saw him play for Plymouth v Grimsby during a holiday in Devon.  

Very sad at only 68.  As a striker, his brain injury is possibly linked to heading a football.   Health changes cannot  come quickly enough to help young footballers now.
