Sir Clive Sinclair, inventor of the C5 and other crap products has passed. You don't become a 'Sir' by only inventing crap products The guy was a genius RIP Sir Clive PS: If your comment was tongue in cheek, then that's OK, I get it

RIP Jimmy Greaves aged 81. The best finisher I’ve ever seen in English footballer and one of the few genuinely worthy of the term “ all time great”!

The FA if they have any respect for the man should erect a statue next to his best mate Bobby Moore.

When I used to go to Spurs they had many great household name players but he was the one above all else who you really wanted to see.
He used to live in Huntsman Road, Hainault, opposite Kingswood School, and his mum used to shop in the Co-op butchers in Manford Way when I worked there in the 70's.
I remember (when I was a kid) doing a drawing of him doing a bicycle kick.
RIP Greavsie

Very fortunate to see Jimmy many times including at West Ham,which I think was his debut.It seemed strange to see him in a West Ham shirt.

John Challis: What can I say, just don't buy a secondhand car from him.
"We’ve got a plane to catch Marlene! Come on, kiss him goodbye
She kisses Del
For Gawd’s sake, the dog Marlene!"
RIP John, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah....

If it was not for Becchetti we would not have the present board.
