Thanks Del, John Challis alluded to RLP's Shakespearean acting in his tribute on Five Live this morning, though sadly I had to stop listening after he'd said "I'd sort of heard a sort of rumour..."

RIP Tony Hateley, 72, legend and a brilliant header of a ball

Pretty inadequate tribute here from the BBC

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/26003703

Slightly better one here

RIP Stan Crowther, a FA Cup-winner with Villa in 1957, one of those who then joined Manchester United after the Munich disaster, and I saw him play for his penultimate club

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stan_Crowther_(footballer)

And it's good to see that Manchester United acknowledge his passing

http://www.manutd.com/en/News-And-Featu ... -away.aspx

Hadn't realised he'd retired so young - if that "at the age of 27" is correct then he must have been with us 1961/2?

Amazed I can remember that far back!

Actor Francis Matthews, who was the voice of Captain Scarlet in Gerry Anderson's 1960s TV show, has died at the age of 86.

Not quite indestructible then…….. :?

I used to work with a 'Bunny' Warren. He was Linesman in the 1998 World Cup Final in Paris.

I've heard it twice now and yes, Sir Alex Ferguson's tribute to di Stefano on Five Live definitely includes "Madonna" among his list of all-time great footballers

Funny I haven't heard it mentioned on talkSPORT, they're too busy wetting themselves about Jenson Button's future
