Dead. Had a massive influence on the game something people who only knew him as a commentator forget.

As I recall he was behind the abolition of maximum wages for players
Trivial fact - Palace used to win 5-1 at least once a season, maybe next season? |

Way before my time but an absolute visionary, just wiki him. His comments just hours after Hillsborough were exactly the what a 20 odd year inquiry found.
Nope it's not my name |

RIP - however, I wasn't a fan of his. I wrote to him when we had the Clive Allen 'goal' ruled out at Coventry to suggest that his players should have owned up to it being a goal. Let's just say that he did not think much of that suggestion.

As bigger influence as Bosman. Not sure if it was actually for the best but RIP.

Yes, I've still got the letter that he sent back and signed.
