Rest In Peace.

I remember him on Guardians Football Weekly and enjoyed his input, even talking us up (which can be very rare for a Scottish team on The Guardian!).

Seemed like a good guy. RIP

Sad to hear this, he was a good contributor on the early days of the Football Weekly podcast many years ago now. 62 is no age to die.

Will chime in with everyone else. Big fan of his writing in the 00s when i was consuming a lot of football media. Liked him on the Guardian pod also.

Terrible way to go. Hope his family find peace.

I remember he absolutely slaughtered the Gangrene Brigade for their Palestinian stunt at the Theatre of Shame a couple of years ago.
