Quoted from ginnywings
What an icon and trailblazer this guy was. Great player too and his goal of the season sticks in my mind above all others. Was a great era before money started to destroy the game.

RIP and thanks for some great memories.


This, and what Moosey said. The terrible abusive racism this guy must've endured, sickens me.
True legend in the game.

If you go to the BBC website and watch the interview with Brian Deane about the death of Regis, you can see just what he meant to young black players, and the terrible abuse they used to receive.
