Spade_Cooley 9,540 Posted February 22, 2019 Well done to the three who picked her, like most I thought she had much longer left. She becomes the first ever person born in the 2000s to be a DDP hit, as well as the youngest hit since the ban on under-18s was introduced. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RadGuy 1,614 Posted February 22, 2019 Ah, fuck. Really thought she was a banker to make 2020. If I thought she had even a 20% chance of dying this year (especially so early!) I would have picked her in the DDP. This, plus Michael "I think he may have already died off the radar'' Murphy's death yesterday, and McGahan earlier in the month... really shaping up to be a shitty year for me in the DDP. But there's 10 months left so we'll see. And of course, on a personal note - sad story. No age at all. Weird seeing somebody who's pretty much my age becoming a DDP hit. Now I know how youze oldies feels. RIP Jordan Dawes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Former Scotland captain and probably the best full back in Europe in the early 60's, and was at WC in 58. A mate of his grandsons resorting to pm to answer a question about him on a forum gets my Spidey Senses tingling..... That, along with a Mauchline nursing home, no cunto deserves that for long.
