Legendary german striker Gerd Müller has Alzheimer's:

This fact has been hidden from the public for years, apparently. The media knew. The approach of his 70th birthday next month (and Müller's absence from the celebration) might have caused them to make it public. Since February 2015 he has been receiving 'professional care with heavy support from his family'. His doctor also says that Bayern Munich has integrated him 'despite obvious indications of his ailment' for several years. Whatever that means... So the illness has been progressing for years.

As a Dutchman I would like to forget the 1974 final as well...

 

Lucky Bastard....

Former Everton manager Howard Kendall dies, aged 69

 

I recall that one of the old Championship Manager series (may have been 97/98) had a bug whereby Bobby Gould was sacked as Wales manager in the first week, and Howard Kendall would always be appointed. The game then seemed to completely forget about this as the seasons passed, with Howard always toiling away regardless of results, or finishing bottom of a qualifying group. In an epic game my mate played, HK's finest hour came when he led them to World Cup glory. In the same game Man United were relegated to the Conference under the leadership of Gary Neville, whilst Hull and Carlisle became European superpowers.

 

Maybe one day...

Brian Lomax, co-founder of Supporters Direct, helped set up the first supporters trust in football (at Northampton Town) in 1992 and, most importantly, the nominal captain for my 2016 DDP team, dead.

Former Dream Team star, Paul Gundani, died on Wednesday afternoon. Gundani, who succumbed to a short illness, with doctors suspecting cerebral malaria or meningitis, played for both Lancashire Steel and Ziscosteel.

World Cup and European Cup Winner Nobby Stiles looks close to the end, his family are keeping a bedside vigil, Stiles was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer two years ago and suffers from dementia after previously having a stroke. Sad news a footballing legend for both England and my team Manchester United.

Poor bastard. Weird to think he actually played for Manchester City after the Mansour takeover.
