Butch - The Turd - 31-03-2018
Ray Wilkins in an induced coma. Met him once a fair few years ago...what an absolute gent. Hoping he recovers.

Aye, read about that. Wasn't it him who stotted the ball off a ref once when he was taking a throw-in and got sent off? That was hilarious

I liked him as a player, although he got stick from some quarters and was nicknamed "the crab" for his sideways passing.
Always came across as a pleasant modest bloke. I read he's already had a couple of valves replaced. It's astonishing how do many professional and obviously fit sportsmen succumb to these types of illnesses.

Absolute gem of a gentleman and such a professional and gifted player. Will be sadly missed. RIP Butch.
