You all choked up about Phil as well, elgin?

Bit before my time, Pete, so no, but I do think you have a fair point.

On this day, the 28th anniversary of his passing, we remember the 'legend' that IS, Philip Parris Lynott.
RIP Phil.

Well that illustrates the point of how easily a proper celebrities death gets squared away and forgotten on here. Our GIE chum puts an 'in memorium' notice up for Phil Lynott, who's been dead for 26 years, and the thread grinds to a halt!

To the mod who decided Phil Everlys death should go on here, do your research first! as Lez keeps telling me.

Eusebio.

Great player.

Your Everley brother ain't no Eusebio Pete. A footballing legend on a football forum, now he should have a thread of his own. Second only to Pele during his era and still in the top ten best players even now.

Sixties National Hunt jockey, Terry Biddlecombe. RIP.

I'll add my own RIP to that.

One of the old school of NH jockeys, fearless, brave, enjoyed life and probably drank far too much.

Eusebio.

Great player.

I thought this comment from Mourinho was lovely

Guys like him never die. The history is there, and history does not let him die

 

[STURTZ]

Pele, Eusebio and Brian Joy!
