Like a lot more in their 60s and 70s they were born a bit too early to cash in like some lesser and younger players have recently.

It was a really moving report.My dad has dementia. It tears everybody up. Hope we get a cure one day.

Good luck to the big man. Enjoyed watching him in my youth at OBV.

He was class for us, I was always surprised how good he was in the air, certainly not the tallest centre half - good luck to him and his family

Him and Jack Ashurst were a good cb pair when Billy Bremmner was rebuilding a potentially good side.

For me too,certainly in the days when we was a club with little money.Think we conceded the least goals in our league when we had them 2.Did'nt see the news,but very sad to hear about,good luck Brendan,hope you can make a good recovery and thank you for the great days watching you play for Rovers.

Great player for us, a real 100% committed player, very sad to hear, good luck to him.

He had his stroke five years ago. The article was about the strain it’s put on him and his wife. A very sad story to watch

Where is it reported he's passed away? I can't find anything.

I can't see anything saying he's died - not sure this is factually accurate

Where? I can't find that in the e-mail blast nor anywhere on here. I don't think it's accurate anyway, maybe some confusion with Reece Nicholson perhaps?

idler · « **Reply #18 on** April 05, 2019, 11:05:39 am by idler »

I got in my regular exiles update. He did say that he was looking for confirmation but not where he had seen it.
