Can remember having his sticker on my lunchbox from the (I think) Pannini 89 sticker book.

My god he was so young.
RIP Bernie, well remember his marauding runs down the wing.
That is no age to go.

I'm surprised this has'nt been mentioned on the OS, i can't see anything.

It may be that the family don't want it publicised. You never know in such circumstances.

There are 2 articles up now.

It may be that the family don't want it publicised. You never know in such circumstances.

I seem to recall his last ever appearance being in my first ever visit to Villa Park, a 2-1 win over Coventry in September 1990, I certainly don't remember seeing him after that.  From recollection Kevin Gallagher gave him a torrid time for half an hour after which he got his shit together and then marked him out of the game.

RIP.
