Significant people's (not celebrities) deaths

Veteran Sky sports news presenter David Bobin has died. He hasn’t looked well for a long time but was a good pro all the same.

Rumours going around that Cheick Tiote formerly of Newcastle has died after collapsing in training earlier. Hopefully untrue. A warrior of a man

Confirmed. RIP :cry:

he’s toast

Fucking hell!

He was probably 70 years of age to be fair

Hein Verbruggan, aged 75.

Has anybody told Paul Kimmage yet I wonder.

Hein’s good health (HGH) ran out.

May he have eternal peace onwards (EPO).

He’s gone to that great administration role covering up doping in the Sky, sorry, sky.
