RIP Ron.

On googling Ron's name I notice that the SUN have reported Ron's passing accompanied with a photo of Johnny Vincent.

Oh that's a shame. I had the pleasure of Ron coaching me when I was a kid at a Villa soccer school. He was a really nice guy with a really good sense of humour. He played a joke on me that I still remember all these years later.

A wonderful servant to the club in so many ways, treated disgracefully by a former chairman, as were many others.
