    I remember him being on fantasy football, I can't believe he isn't even 40!

    A rather tragic story I should imagine.
    I think his father had a lot to answer for.

    Thought this might have been about Robin Friday (couldn't remember his name) but he was, 'The Greatest Footballer You Never Saw'.

    Didn’t the bass player in Oasis wrote a book about him? Or am I imaging it?

    I can’t see his story justifying a book really.

    Bit dramatic, just another kid on the pile who didn't make it. The only difference is he had the red tops in his face sensationalising his story.
