Octopus of Odstock

Nice idea for a thread, but why not include those from the BBC years? I haven't gone through all the names but Tommy Steele, Petula Clark and Olivia de Havilland are all in there and alive.

Star? The poor lad never played first team football for Forest, let alone was one of their star players. Hasnt even got a Wiki page. Tragic ending though.

Zanardi: Update of sorts, none of it particularly positive. https://www.motorsport.com/general/news/zanardi-undergoes-second-neurological-operation-/4814128/?utm_source=home-page-widget&utm_medium=widget&utm_campaign=widget-1

Jaroslav Pollak of Czechoslovakia (1970) is dead, link is in Czech. Older than LFN and Toast, younger than Prince Phillip.

I've been mightily impressed with Rishi Sunak during all this turbulence. Not least as he didn't even have time to prepare or plan due to Javid seemingly doing a Cameron and bailing out early.

Zaire's Kilasu Massamba played against Petkovic et al in 1974 and he also died last week. Sorry about font size as I'm on the phone and haven't the foggiest how to amend it. Obit - https://actualite.cd/2020/06/25/rdc-champion-dafrique-1974-et-mondialiste-la-meme-annee-victor-kilasu-massamba-est

I think that's the crux of it. Zanardi's heart and body will keep going, naturally or artificially. But if he's brain dead, I feel that Daniela will let nature do is course and let him go. But they will only do that if that's the only option. Schumi is not brain dead and whilst he isn't who he was, he can function to some limited degree. Here's hoping for a better outcome but I doubt it will occur.

Not sure why you think that. Here's a bit more from the hospital that very much says death is a possibility. https://www.motorsport.com/general/news/alex-zanardi-hospital-prognosis-surgeon/4809765/

Alex is one of my very few genuine heroes. I fear the worst simply as his body went through such trauma all those years ago. This reminds me more of Andrea de Cesaris' fatal accident.

Updated lists. Numbers going down relatively rapidly from a few years ago. People highlighted in red are those I'm 99% certain are still alive. 1950 World Cup – 6 survivors MexicoPlayerDoB/Age 1Antonio Carbajal(1929-06-07)7 June 1929 (aged 21) ChilePlayerDoB/ Age 9Manuel Muñoz(1928-04-28)28 April 1928 (aged 22) 12Andrés Prieto(1928-12-19)19 December 1928 (aged 21) ItalyPlayerDoB/Age 8Giampiero Boniperti(1928-07-04)4 July 1928 (aged 21) -2Attilio Giovannini(1924-07-30)30 July 1924 (aged 25) ParaguayPlayerDoB/Age 9Darío Saguier(1926-09-11)11 September 1926 (aged 23) Definitely all dead: Brazil, Uruguay, Spain, Sweden, England, USA Believed all dead (but no information to confirm); Bolivia, Switzerland, Yugoslavia 1954 survivors – 32 Definitely all dead: Yugoslavia, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Belgium, Brazil France No......Pos......Player...........................DoB/Age........................................................Caps.......Club 1........1GK.....François Remetter.......(1928-08-08)8 August 1928 (aged 25)..........4..............FC Metz Mexico No......Pos......Player.....................DoB/Age........................................................Caps.......Club 1........1GK.....Antonio Carbajal....(1929-06-07)7 June 1929 (aged 25)..............11...........FC León 7........4FW....Alfredo Torres.........(1931-05-31)31 May 1931 (aged 23)............3.............Atlas 9........4FW....José Luis Lamadrid.(1930-07-03)3 July 1930 (aged 23)..............5.............Necaxa 16......3MF.....Pedro Nájera...........(1929-02-03)3 February 1929 (aged 25)......0............Club América West Germany No......Pos......Player..................DoB/Age........................................................Caps.......Club 6........3MF......Horst Eckel..........(1932-02-08)8 February 1932 (aged 22)......8.............1.

I've always been doubtful about some of the alleged surviving 1950's footballers but never been able to find anything concrete. Until now. Luis Mayanes, 'alive' at 95 - died in 1979, aged just 54. https://www.partidosdelaroja.com/1970/01/lindorfo-mayanes.html However, the two other Chileans listed as alive - Andres Prieto and Manuel Munoz are still with us according to the same site which is quite comprehensive and updated often. I am now pretty confident that the 6 listed alive: Carbajal (Mexico), Prieto and Munoz (Chile), Saguier (Paraguay) and Boniperti and Giovannini (Italy) are very much with us. There is some doubt whether there are Bolivian, Yugoslav or Swiss survivors, due to records not being as good, but the majority of them are definitely dead.

Willz, Miracle Aligner did the very same list as you did about a month ago. In fact, MA went a little bit further, doing anybody over the age of 70. I can only presume you've blocked MA's posts and hate to think you spent hours on something already just a few posts up.

I'm confused why we now have two identical lists of former MP's? Great research both of you but surely better just to have one list.

Hans Cieslarczyk, German player in 1958, has died. Obit in German. https://www.badische-zeitung.de/trauer-um-den-ehemaligen-fussballnationalspieler-hans-cissy-cieslarczyk--186265584.html

Two for the price of one.
