    a genuine icon, never big headed always approachable and genuinely loved and respected. Rest in peace big guy.
    The dissenter is every human being at those moments of his life when he resigns
    momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.

    Hear, hear, RIP to the big man.

    Also, "Whispering" Ted Lowe has passed on this weekend another true gent.

    It's a shame that two greats have passed on and due to other events which (in the bigger picture) are more newsworthy have been allowed to slip under the radar.

    As I say a real shame.

    Picked up a tabloid in a cafe in Cromford this morning and that was the first I heard about Henry Cooper's passing - even given the importance of other news I'm surprised it hasn't merited a bit more attention but I suppose he hasn't been in the media for a fair while.
    it's a hard life if you don't weaken.
