I was a big fan of him at Wolves too myself. RIP.

Never knew the man, first heard of him today. Never the less a tragedy to hear someone die so young.

It's not clear from the BBC article what he died from. Tragic regardless.

When at the Saints there was talk he'd be a future England captain--he was that good, naturally talented and a born leader.

Health problems put paid to that though

RIP
