My Blood Is Blue Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Such sad news, really sad to see Kevin Campbell has passed away and at such a young age. A Premier League stalwart and seemed like a genuinely good guy from what I saw of him doing media work after his time on the pitch. The Sarkic news is absolutely tragic and heartbreaking, that is far too young for someone to lose their life, with so so much of it ahead of him. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP John Yeah fair enough, perhaps you've redeemed yourself slightly from mentioning Jimmy Buffet earlier in this thread. Jimmy Buffet was a nice man, made a fortune with his restaurants and resorts. He also wrote a few decent songs, but his hit-to-miss ratio was exponentially worse than Timo Werner's. Maybe you should judge an artist on his best work not his worst, but boy was his oeuvre full of stinkers. Edited July 28 by Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
