    Fantastic writer. I started reading his match reports as a teenager and his writing style was so engaging.

    RIP. 

    His age makes me feel old as was quite young when first reading his articles.

    One of the very best. He once opened a match report on us with a really elegant barb against the directors who had moved us to Selhurst. Out of respect for him I’ll try to find the exact words rather than offer a second-best memory mangled effort.
