Miguel Sanchez Posted March 7, 2021 Author Share Posted March 7, 2021 Week 10 update One death this week, former Motherwell and Liverpool player Ian St. John: Ian St John obituary | Football | The Guardian Quote The footballer and television personality Ian St John, who has died aged 82 after suffering from cancer, was a pivotal figure in the restoration of Liverpool football club as a leading force in the mid-1960s, both scoring and making goals in a partnership with Roger Hunt that brought three major honours to Anfield. “Saint” made a total of 425 appearances in the red shirt, scoring 118 goals, including the one in 1965 that brought the FA Cup to Anfield for the first time in Liverpool’s 73-year-old history. Eloquent and passionate, St John was a blunt, combative, highly intelligent character, brave sometimes to the point of idiocy, combustible enough the following year to flatten Fulham’s Mark Pearson with a single punch after the latter had pulled his hair at Craven Cottage. St John then took himself off to the dressing-room without bothering to wait for the referee to pass sentence. “I had a quick temper,” he once acknowledged. “Which was a bad thing. The fact that I wasn’t afraid of anybody was a good thing.” St John went on to be one of the first ex-players successfully to make the crossover from playing to broadcasting, joining ATV as a co-commentator and presenter in 1979. Six years later he established another celebrated partnership, this time on TV, with Jimmy Greaves, in Saint and Greavsie. In the sparse football coverage of that era, this Saturday lunchtime pairing of two genial, authoritative former strikers was compulsory watching. The Guardian also have an assortment of pictures as they often do, with some good ones: Ian St John (1938-2021) – a life in pictures | Football | The Guardian As ever, football just looked better in the old days.

tamthebam Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 The number of private helicopters that crash. If I was a billionaire I wouldn't have one. I think I could just about afford a 1st class ScotRail season ticket instead 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any time anyone asks him how helicopters fly, he says "The concepts are all very simple, but by all rights they probably shouldn't". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.V.T. Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Oh no no no no no no no no. Trevor Peacock, Jim Trott from Vicar of Dibley, will get his church funeral at 89. I think that's more than half the main cast dead now isn’t it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
