    Jimmy Hill Dies

    Jimmy Hill: footballer and Match of the Day legend dies aged 87 after suffering with Alzheimer's Disease - latest - Telegraph

    Oddly enough, I was having one of those is he alive / is he dead conversations with a mate in the pub last night.

    Well, now we know.

    The face of football for many of a certain age. Quite liked him myself.

    Every modern day professional footballer owes their 'life of Riley' to Jimmy.
    The mansions, cars, wags, 6-figures-a-week earnings .. all traceable back to the man with the chin.

    "Hill campaigned to end the Football League's £20 maximum wage, threatening a strike before he succeeded
    in abolishing the ruling in 1961."
