    Johan Cruijff

    Joining Feyernood for one season just because Ajax wouldn't give him an improved contract is perhaps the finest moment of pure petulance in sporting history. What a man.

    Renowned Mountaineers, Feeling Peaky?

    2015 DDP pick (unretained for this year), Glen Dawson dead at 103. Here he is (far right) after completing the first ascent of the East Face of Mount Whitney back in 1931:

    I think this is a lesson for deadpoolers, call it the Tito Vilanova Law. If a famous, young person goes "cancer-ridden, remission, cancer-ridden and forced to retire" in quick succession, it's probably a sign.

    By-Election Bingo

    Labour's held the seat since 1918, so I wouldn't expect too much in the way of a thrilling contest in Ogmore.

    MHDP Obits

    Certainly. A statement on its website, particularly Facebook's family, his death was confirmed by his death described as very bad.

    "Can he kick it ?" Well, yes he can, (referring to 'the bucket'). Came in here to post this exact joke.

    I really, really like that Bruce Langhorne pick, ngl.

    Probably could have fitted Jimmy Carter and all other living ex-presidents in the space.

    Death Anniversary Thread

    Professor Harold Hill himself, Robert Preston, dead this day in 1987, thankfully ensuring he never had to suffer through the Matthew Broderick remake of The Music Man. Matthew Broderick also killed two people, by the by.

    Kudos to everyone who took a punt on the canuck crackfiend.

    Political Frailty

    Yeah, he was a DDP pick in 2015 and probably would have been a bigger favourite amongst the main teams if he hadn't announced remission in, what, October 2014?

    The 6th death of 2016

    Gonna pick Carrington until he goes I think.

    Daniels was too busy being racist to nonce, imho

    Right, going to reopen this barrel of worms (frogs legs?) again.... if QOs include, and I quote, "those on the death announcements section of broadsheet websites", then the fact that an obituary is created from a letter should have no bearing on whether it is a QO or not. Under the rules of the DDP, if not the spirit, this counts as a Delpech obituary. If Death Announcements were banned from being QOs (a move I would welcome), then I wouldn't be arguing this. But as it stands... To be honest, I'd also welcome the removal of The Guardian's "Other Lives" section as a QO source. But for 2016, I think I have an argument. And what better way to pay tribute to Delpech's fellow 2016 corpse Harper Lee than to argue this?
