No criticism of anyone here but I'm surprised that this news didn't draw any comments on a football forum.

Such a great part. One of the most chilling in cinema history. It's a brilliant film too (if you can get past the monkeys at the start).

What a fantastic life he's led. Lived to the grand old age of 95. An agnostic and a humanist as well.

Blimey. No age at all! :(

Out of interest, was he any relation to ex Grecian Barry Rowan, whose very first club back in 1960 was also Brentford (although he never actually made any appearances for them during his brief time there)?

Doubtful I suspect - this chap moved down from Scotland to take up his role at Brentford.
