I'd completely missed the news of the passing of Doug Mountjoy, until my snooker-mad neighbour told me this morning...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/snooker/51946334

Saw him play at The Crucible. Fine player... "a true champion and a gentleman," as Cliff Thorburn says.

RIP another from that brilliant Leeds team, Peter Lorimer, 74... Bob Wilson on TalkSPORT this morning was saying that, as an opposing keeper, you dreaded when he got the ball anything up to 30 yards out. Here's the proof...

Part of the Blues team that came down to the old ground to play in the game that saw our new floodlights officially turned on back in 1980.

It rained buckets that night.

Probably the saddest RIP we have had on this site for a long time.

Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh (born Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark; 10 June 1921 – 9 April 2021)

Even sadder was that someone texted me "RIP PRINCE PHILLIP"

No names, of course...
