Re: RIP To those departed
A personal one... A great friend and a fellow lifelong Leeds United supporter...
Just off the phone with the wife of an old comrade of mine... Ian "Spud" Murphy passed away 8 hours ago in ICU from covid...
Me and Spud served together for 20 years, went through some tough s**t together, but more good times than bad, I was his best man at his wedding. we went through the emotions of the last 16 years together, we never lost touch...Enjoy the Green Fields old friend, see you when I get there...
. .
Through the mud, and the blood to the Green fields beyond.

RIP Leslie West. Mountain's first four albums were oft played in the 6th form common room. That Les Paul had a unique sound. I went to see Mountain on their last tour in Manchester in 2003, and they were excellent. There was a drunk at the front, who was constantly heckling Leslie, and he shut him up completely with the comment, "Hey, don't I know you from rehab. ?"

Jim McLean.
One of the few who came close to breaking the Old Firm monopoly in Scotland,
I remember their run to the Uefa Cup Final, iirc it was their 55th game of the season and his squad were absolutely done in.
