He was a great friend to Gazza and took him under his wing at the start of his career.Wonder if this may stop Gazza going to the jungle now

Sad to hear, I always liked Glenn

 

[Jan Wyck]

Really sad news.

A football man through and through. His passion for the game poured out of him.

 

[Kennyr]

Sad news. Seemed a good guy

Wasn't he treated like an animal by Ashley during his time at Newcastle?

 

[Dave Angell]

Almost moved his family to Rome with him to be his minder. Changed his mind at the very last minute.

Sure he changed his mind after Gazza went out on the piss in Newcastle (still not fully recovered from the first knee injury), got knocked on his arse by some random and buckled his knee again.

Roeder heard about it and told Gazza to forget it, and cancelled all his plans to move to Rome with him.

 

[Bacachger]

That's very sad news.

 

[jimbear]

Very sad news.

 

[Talktalk]

I’m sure the club employed him for a while when Gazza signed for us to look after him.

sleep tight Glen

 

[Alan1965]

Sad news indeed. No age at all.
Was pleasantly surprised hearing about him looking after a young Gazza.
RIP

 

[gersin008]

Always seemed a good guy

[mossy]

Sad news. Always came across as a nice chap.

 

[sir_walter_smith]

As a PT Newcastle fan due to family, I'm a bit gutted at this, he'd been battling cancer for a good few years.

RIP

 

[Carlton The Bear]

Sorry to hear this. A pal of Gazza's, wasn't he? RIP.

I met him along with Jimmy Five Bellies and Gazza the morning after the Hearts “Laudrup final”. A very nice guy he was too.

Sad news, my thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.

 

[Dugsy]
