Kenny Sansom fighting for life after being beaten up.

 

Update of sorts - still ill, stable but requiring 24/7 care.

 

I think this is probably him now tbh.

"He's stable and does not have COVID-19. Kenny's family and close friends still kindly ask the media to respect Kenny's privacy and theirs, plus that of the healthcare workers treating Kenny."

 

Seems pretty much that he's in indefinite palliative care to me, in the unlikely event he makes December he's a Joker given he's only 61.

Apparently not the first time he’s wandered off, having done so last September:

On TV so no photos but watching a recent BT Sport doc about Man United in the 70s and Pat Crerand looks fucked, lost weight, gaunt in the cheeks, skeletal hands, slurred speech etc.

 

Also Tommy Docherty has shown up. He always used to look good for his age but it's really catching up with him now. He's got the old man red face from vascular issues look going on.

 

Denis Law looks like shit but strangely better than he did about 2 years ago.

 

EDIT - John Cooper-Clarke looks ghastly too. This is nearly a one stop shop for DDP form guides.

Pat Crerand has never been the sharpest tool in the box but i wouldn't be surprised if he has the early stages of Dementia, agree he looks bad.

 

Tommy Docherty-Was reading an article with Lawrie McMenemy a couple of weeks ago he mentioned that Docherty's health had declined recently but went into no more detail than that so wouldn't be surprised if he has Vascular issues and he is 92 now so age was going to catch up with him eventually. I don't think he has ever particularly took great care of himself i remember him once saying something along the lines of 'If i knew i was going to live as long as i have i would of taken better care of myself.' 

 

Denis Law- Has looked awful for years, he is one of those who when you look at him you don't know how he keeps going nice to hear he looks a bit better but that doesn't take much.

Whatever happens from here Docherty has done very well to make it to 92 and apparently still with his marbles intact . Very few nonagenarian Scottish footballers from the 1940s and 1950s still around.

Which is why he should be on the 2021 List.

Oh Docherty is still chatting away about his time at United from an armchair. His mind still clearly works, even if he himself is start to show his age.

 

Here's a screenshot which isn't as good as my laptop darkens the picture. On screen he starts like that and goes bright red after about 10 seconds of talk, which is another hint at vascular issues, as is the broken veins on his cheeks and neck.

Doesn't look bad for 92 if that is recent. He's never exactly been svelte either so it's a minor miracle the Doc is still going. Although is that the Grim Reaper on horseback stalking him?

If I was to guess how old he was from that picture I would of said early - mid 80's  Does;t lok like he is in his 90's
