A  truly lionhearted defender who could play a bit and scored some important goals for Town and was one of my idols when groing up RIP .

So many superlatives listed above, and all of them merited.

He was one of the greatest players ever to wear the shirt. We were so very very fortunate to have him in our team for so many years.

A legend,

Thank you, Kevin. You enriched the lives of all Town fans that had the pleasure of watching you.

Rest in peace.

Yep, pretty much sums it up for me.

He is also remembered very fondly by Southampton fans who are suggesting a minutes applause in the 5th minute (Kev's shirt number) in their forthcoming game against Stoke City and I'm sure the club itself will also be doing something official.

It's just a shame our season has finished and us fans cannot pay our respects in unison.

Really saddened to read this yesterday; was at school with Kev and Dave.
It puts things in perspective though.  It makes you realise that life and family are so precious and  a miserably cold day culminating in penalty horror show and losing to Newport are but a sideshow in the main event of life itself.

All thoughts are with the Moore family.
RIP.

When football is now littered with egotistic money grabbing wasters it is sad that one of the games gentlemen has passed at such a young age.

My memories of Kev where as a young lad when we were both part of Towns youth set up. He was a couple of years older but as 14-15-16 year olds we looked up to him as he and Fordy in particular had an aura about them yet maintained an approachable yet driven demeanour.

As a player I saw him described as swashbuckling and fearless. Powerful and strong yet not the biggest.

As a man he was bright and intelligent. I chatted to him for ages once at Fulham were he was 'stadium manager' for a time.

We all have to go sometime but 55 is no age. It is even sadder, if possible, that it is suggested that his early demise may have been brought about by heading the ball.

A top player and a top man.

My thoughts are with Kevin's family at this time.

Maybe the Trust can promote the George Kerr evening as a celebration of Kevin's career whilst at GTFC, especially as it is said many of his ex team mates will be in attendance?

Very sad news, even after a difficult last few years - a quality player in a quality team, and by all accounts a quality person too.

I can only echo the many tributes and condolences in this thread.

R.I.P.
