Good to see he's being looked after as his dementia worsens.

One of my favourite Town players of all time, pure class.

How can any Grimsby fan who was there, ever forget Chris's finest hour (and a half) in a Mariners shirt on that rainy evening at Goodison Park in November 1984.

Here's hoping that he will be able to live out the rest of his life in relative comfort.

I reckon he was Dave Booth's best signing...a fabulous defender even though he was past his best. The moment I remember was in (I think!) the League Cup away at Coventry. He was fouled by Terry Gibson...his reaction was to turn Gibson around to take his number for future reference. I lived near Coventry at the time and even their fans found it funny!

A great player and a great bloke.

I wish him all the best he deserves it.
