Yep just heard this on the news, I know alot of people slagged him off and was the butt of a few jokes which'll probably get worse in the next couple of days but personally speakin I thought he was sound, and the place will be a lot less brighter without him!

Never really liked the bloke, well at least his attempts at humour, but sorry for his family that he is dead.

P.S Did he have a season ticket?
