RIP indeed. Happy days in the 70s not wanting games to end, no hanging on desperately for no side.

Ah bugger - one of the greats, and by heck the players listened to him when he was captain.

An outstanding player in the great 1971 Lions team, while being a very understated player.

Unless it's well hidden there's no mention of his death by either Barnes or Jones in the Sunday Times, in a week in which both their articles are about the Lions.
