Chris Thompson (Dr Kish / @Ketts) RIP

Richard J

I have been informed by his daughter that Chris Thompson @Ketts passed away this morning .

Chris was the brains behind Dr Kish and made into a very popular blog . I have known him over the last six years and have contributed my mutual teams to the Blog .

He used journalistic principles of protecting his sources when ITK . My favourite example of this was when Francis Coquelin was recalled by Arsenal from his loan spell  . Chris had the tip off from the Training Ground but leaked it to an Arsenal Blog who published it and were happy to take the credit . He then reported it for DK as 'sources in north London' .

Oh, that is shocking.

I messaged him only this morning and was surprised not to hear back from him.

Such a nice guy, such a dedicated fan who despite this health problems was always at games.

I will miss him and our pre-match chats on the low wall opposite the chippy on Floyd Rd.

RIP Chris

He asked me last Season to do match reports for the U23s on Dr Kish. This has shocked me. He was a really lovely man. RIP Chris.

RIP Chris. Always relied on a Dr Kish link as a form of ITK situation. Very sad.
