It's always sad to read about great players suffering in this way. I saw him play on odd occasions down the years...obviously not one of the most popular players in this part of the world in his heyday but I think we'd all wish him well.

He gave me one of those funny memories you always remember. I think it was probably late 70s when he was at York...the ball fell for him on the edge of the box; perfect Lorimer territory & we all just waited for the back of the net to bulge. Instead, he mishit it & it bobbled out of play somewhere near the corner flag. Cue a spontaneous chant from the main terrace of "Ninety miles an hour..." as he ran back upfield.
