sad news still so young. Used to get stick but I always thought he was a decent player even when he missed that pen at Horwich and it even missed the Normid supermarket as it was still rising. God Bless Russel RIP

I nicked this off AVFTT and made the same mistake that he died three years ago, what an idiot I am.

Thanks Bobby that was the one, it was a fun afternoon that one
