The story I never wanted to write

Thanks for that.

Good article. Very sad, but it's also worth remembering that he spent virtually his whole life involved in football, which he loved.

He had a great life.

I doubt i'll read a tribute as good as that over the coming days. Superb.

Lovely piece Dave. I hope people outside of Villa and Watford will now regard him like we do.

This is really insightful and a lovely piece. I particularly enjoyed the fact he reacted with humour and pleasantness in the anecdote you kindly shared.  This is great for you to have a witness and no doubt Graham is smiling and you sharing the tell. Thanks .
