Death Notices

Yeah after Parrott and McCoist it went downhill. They Think Its All Over was another favourite of mine as well that wouldn't have survived the modern era.

Parrott  and McCoist were very good.  Tufnell is a bit of a buffoon  but the actual format of the show  was still good. McGuinness and those two captains  just killed it completely. It was as absolutely brutal

They think it's all over  was good. But as you say , rounds like Feel the Sportsman  wouldn't  be allowed  these days.

Yeah to be fair I just didn't like Matt Dawson from his rugby days so that clouded my judgement on it. But you're right the format on AQOS was still there - just a simple sports quiz for 30 minutes. The most recent one was all over the place.

"Tuffers" was a ballbag.

I stopped watching in and around that time.

not even close to Dawson on that front though.

He was a wild man for the drink!

In fairness to him he didn't give a shite who he pulled

Actor Eric Dane, 53. ALS.

Watching the new/final season of Euphoria and he's in a really bad way. Onset of symptoms to death in less two and a half years. Awful disease.

An incredible, inspirational man who refused to let his life be defined by the brutal, tragic accident he suffered. RIP

Sean Clinton buried yesterday of Ormeau Road fame. Any regulars of the Hatfield in the 00s will remember him as the door man. Always enjoyed his company. The last gun man
