Rather than Tony spunking his money on a load of old cock in the Championship, he should sink it into making the DeLorean finally serviceable. What price a time travelling Ron Saunders on hand for when we started to wilt in Feb/March 1990, March 1993 or May 2000. Or at any point last season, just to test his boxing theories out on Lescott, Micah and Gabby. Constantly.

Sad to read how Ron is now in a care home but some wonderful reader comments made by Pompey fans here. The Ron Saunders song they had raised a smile. What a great player, manager and man.

Of course, devastatingly sad the decline of dementia, a peculiarly painful slow loss of the man, of quality of life and connection to the personality that was. Poignant words from Ronnie Jr.I'm left with a fantasy of the Holte singing long and loud for him one last time while he *may* still have capacity to take in a video of it. Probably naive, but wouldn't that be special. I so wish he had his name on a stand during his lifetime.
For me the best Manager of Aston Villa in my lifetime
I wouldn’t want to name the current North Stand after such a great man. I’m hoping we do for the new one (as and when it happens).
