Quoted from Vance Warner
Really hope he pulls through always comes across as a thoroughly decent bloke.

Remember Gary Childs nutmegging him in a League Cup game against QPR that we lost on penalties. Still one of the best cup ties I've ever seen at BP. He was getting on by then but still oozed class.


Did Butch play that night?! Didn’t know that.

We were fantastic that night, one of the best games I’ve seen. Unjust that we lost on penalties. Seem to think Sir Les did us in the first leg......

Wilkins definitely played as player manager and I’m pretty certain Andy Sinton scored the winner and celebrated in front of the pontoon

That's right. I think Andy Impey, the man with no neck played that night as well.

The full time whistle has blown for Ray, RIP. A great player in his day and a charismatic manager.

RIP Ray... Great footballer in his day and very knowledgeable pundit.

A reminder of the precarious live we all live.

A fit man, spent lots of time outdoors in the fresh air and is taken at the young age of 61

Sad news RIP Ray top man.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Promise a man someone else's fish and he votes Labour.

He was a very young captain in a successful Chelsea team at the time - always spoke in a measured way without criticising anyone I thought. Same age as me as it happens - so as Cloudy says - put things in to perspective.
