    What a voice. Absolutely loved his commentary. Always felt like he was speaking to you rather than simply commentating.

    Thanks for the memories, Jimmy. His eyes were a bit green tinted when commentating on the boxing but one of the good ones, along with Philip Greene who also passed away a few years ago.
    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.

    No, no, no. Can't believe it. Was listening to Mudcrutch only this afternoon.

    Edit
    Feels wrong to thank you for breaking that news, Nigel, but better to hear it from a man who knows his music, I guess. I've a few friends who'll be in shock tomorrow at work I reckon.

    LAPD seem to have made a balls of this. They confirmed the death earlier, but only in the past few minutes have released a statement saying that the death is not confirmed. TMZ reporting he's still clinging on to life support.

    It's being reported on various other channels now (CNN etc) that he has died. He had a massive heart attack at his home in Malibu and was rushed to UCLA hospital (not far away just outside Santa Monica).

    Tom Humphries : In custody now. He always had a downer on League of Ireland and was on a crusade via his column in the Irish Times to stop Shamrock Rovers getting to Tallaght. Thankfully his and the GAA's attempt to stop ' Association football' been played in Tallaght Stadium didn't work.

    Jeez a lot of greats died this week, Campbell, Gord, Dunsworth from TPB, and Sean Hughes. One of the funniest things i have sever seen on Tv was Hughes on Come Dine With Me, basically rehashing the same meal three times, potatoes and cabbage or something in a variety of different formats, he didn't give a ****, class.
