RIP Doug. I only met him once face-to-face when he signed my copy of his autobiography at WHSmith (I think) quite a few years ago. He took the time out to talk for a couple of minutes as opposed to just sign the book and move on to the next punter.
His second biggest monument (after AVFC) should have been a National Stadium home of the national team. I know personally that his completely viable 100,000 seater stadium beside the NEC was costed at £150 million. The new Wembley is a billion and counting. The FA never took him seriously and they should have.
He looked frail when McGregor's grave was rededicated, 6 or 7 years ago? Then the TV cameras were turned for interviews and he was past everyone and at the front of the queue faster than Usain Bolt.
But you still did !!
