The Old Crem

Looks ok for now but a main list contender at some point. A one of a kind figure.

Weiskopf making the main list wouldnt have surprised me through

I think Bielsa might stay another season if Leeds stay up (He still seems popular among the fans and players) and Dyche most likely will if Burnley manage somehow to get out of the drop.

I won’t. Just raising attention that it’s a bit odd that people who make the crowdsourced or drop 40 don’t have their own thread despite the fact that really they should in my opinion.

Does anyone think any of Doddie Weir, George Perez, Rob Burrow, Tom Weiskopf, Tim Bilton and Susie Steiner deserve their own threads on account of making the drop 40.

Could be quite a while till it ends.

I imagine the breathing issues caused by cancer tend to present differently to a sudden onset Covid can cause through.

One to watch? Or maybe he got the idea from Bowie.

I knew an old lady who should have been turning 100 very soon but she died in 2019.

I’ve only met one person who was over 100. She was a neighbour of my grandparents - I remember shaking her hand for her 100th. I’ve never had a relative get to 100 - the oldest was 97 then 95. I don’t know anyone over mid 80’s at the moment.

90% of the people in ICU have been At certain hospitals.

If he was will he would have been all over the media last summer but total silence.

That’s a surprise.

Maybe a scandal is coming or something is happening in his personal life.

Covid related death and had previously posted anti vaccination messages on social media.

Maybe waiting for people to be able to travel or gather because of Covid?

I think In 40 years time they will be a even bigger gap in footballer v general population life expectancy. So many of the ones seem to still binge drink, sun bed like crazy and even look like they drug take when binge drinking is declining in society. Particularly English ones - there are only a few tetotal (Harry Kane for example) or even moderate drinking English ones.

What would you say her Q/O chances are. To me she could Get a broadsheet obituary but by no means certain she will get anything.

He didn’t really represent that many stage actors - theatrical agent is a big misleading.

I feel like that it is quite possible that by 2040 the only countries sharing a monarch with the UK will be Canada, New Zealand and maybe Australia. All the others might slowly become republics following on from Barbados.

Some others include Cecil Parkinson, Brian Mawhinney, Lady Tebbit, Paddy Ashdown, David Amess, James Brokenshire, Gillian Clarke (Ken’s wife), F W De Klerk, Cheryl Gillian, Jeremy Haywood, Toby Jessel, Shirley Williams, And a few others on the clock alongside Mahathir like Frank Field, Douglas Hurd, Norman Tebbit and King Constantine.

I spotted Lord Bramall, Lord Carrington, Jimmy Young, Baroness Trumpington, Donald Sinden. Bound to be more. Plenty more dead but they were nearly all born before her.

I wonder how many people born before her attended and have died since. I can only think of the Duke of Edinburgh for certain. .
