Met him at Ayresome Park in 1994 along with Bob Mortimer. A pukka fan. Malcolm Allison signed a bottle of Middlesbrough red wine for us that day too.

I was very Sad when I heard the news. A great comic. I remember seeing him coming out of the stadium after we lost to Leicester in the play off final.

I want to be cremated I know how boring funerals can be I want people to gather meet new people have a laugh, a dance, meet a loved one. I want people to have free drink all night. I want people to patch together, half truths. I want people to contradict each other I want them to say 'I didn't know him but cheers' I want my parents there, adding more pain to their life. I want the Guardian to mis-sprint three lines about me or to be mentioned on the news Just before the 'parrot who loves Brookside' story. I want to have my ashes scattered in a bar, on the floor, mingle with sawdust, a bar where beautiful trendy people Will trample over me… again From Sean's Book by Sean Hughes, published by Pavilion Books

I was saddened to hear the news of Sean's passing - taken so young at the age of 51. I have this very hazy memory of Sean Hughes speaking to supporters in Crystals many,many years ago but it might have been some other celebrity - my memory isn't what it used to be ! Sean will be cheering us on from above. RIP.
