and I well remember his commentary on the Rumble in the Jungle:
"Suddenly Ali looks very tired indeed. In fact Ali, at times now, looks as though he can barely lift his arms up . . . Oh, he's got him with a right hand! He's got him! Oh, you can't believe it. And I don't think Foreman's going to get up. He's trying to beat the count. And he's out! Oh my God, he's won the title back at 32! ”

Malcolm McLaren RIP
http://news.bbc.co.uk/media/images/4..._malcom_pa.jpg
Malcolm McLaren, the former manager of punk group the Sex Pistols, has died in New York, aged 64, his agent has said.
McLaren, the ex-partner of designer Vivienne Westwood, was believed to have been diagnosed with cancer a while ago.
He set up a clothes shop and label with Westwood on London's King's Road in the 1970s and was later a businessman and performer in his own right.
The couple had a son, Joseph Corre, the co-founder of lingerie shop Agent Provocateur.
Possibly an even greater reason to get behind the internet campaign for taking The Sex Pistols God Save the Queen to Number 1 in June seeing as the record industry screwed them out of it in 1977

Ah jaysus, double blow there.
Can't overplay McLaren's influence on punk this side of the water.
Will hugely miss the Crosaire crossword. Reckon my favourite ever clue was Gegs (9,4), not difficult, but nicely done!
Nice!
There's another year's worth of Crosaires apparently.
