July 31, 200916 yr sad day one of the few English Managers that everyone respected (I certainly did), you could tell he had a genuine love for the game and always wanted be involved in one way or another RIP
July 31, 200916 yr So as an Ipswich manager, was he a mate of Big Terry's then? Must have been considering he made TB captain of England
July 31, 200916 yr Yes, thoughts are with his family of course. I always enjoyed listening to him, full of admiration, and he made Alex Ferguson seem like a novice, of which im sure Alex F would readily admit himself. An amazing man. I have no doubt that this will also hit our own Terry Butcher hard too.
