Afwul, 36 is no age! 3 years older than me!

Just goes to show you. Im surprised a test didn't show the tumour

Did he die of a tumour? The report didn't seem to mention if it was and just mentioned he had a test when he was having dizzy spells in 95?

RIP

Some kind of brain abnormality diagnosed years ago that deteriorated over time.

Good player in his day.

I couldn't believe this when I heard this afternoon, I thought it must have a different one.
He was a big favourite in my family, even after he left Wolves they all held an affection for him.

Very sad. I'm guessing his parents may still be alive, their lives will never be the same again. Realise an expression of sympathy ie, RIP, annoys some posters, not sure what the alternative is, or if there should be an alternative.

Balls to what some posters think. 36 is simply too young.

RIP Dean Richards.

Agree. I'm going to a funeral on Friday; the mother of the deceased is still alive.

I always wondered how this chap wasn't a legend, he had a big rep and it never quite happened. Regardless, nobody deserves to die so young in life. RIP Dean.
