George Alagiah: BBC journalist and newsreader dies aged 67..By Emma Saunders, Entertainment reporter.i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article30539384.ece/ALTERNATES/s615b/0_George-Alagiah-on-the-set-of-World-News.jpgGeorge Alagiah, one of the BBC's longest-serving and most respected journalists, has died at 67, nine years after being diagnosed with cancer. A statement from his agent said he "died peacefully today, surrounded by his family and loved ones". "George was deeply loved by everybody who knew him, whether it was a friend, a colleague or a member of the public. "He simply was a wonderful human being. My thoughts are with Fran, the boys and his wider family," she said. Alagiah died earlier on Monday, but "fought until the bitter end", his agent added. BBC director general Tim Davie said: "Across the BBC, we are all incredibly sad to hear the news about George. We are thinking of his family at this time. "George was one of the best and bravest journalists of his generation who reported fearlessly from across the world as well as presenting the news flawlessly. "He was more than just an outstanding journalist, audiences could sense his kindness, empathy and wonderful humanity. He was loved by all and we will miss him enormously." ichef.bbci.co.uk/images/ic/896x504/p01m1rwh.jpg

I just read that Trevor Francis has died aged 69, great player. The former England forward Trevor Francis, the first player to be transferred in Britain for £1m and the scorer of a European Cup-winning goal for Nottingham Forest, has died at the age of 69. Francis had a distinguished career that started with his Birmingham City debut at 16 and included spells with Forest, Manchester City, Sampdoria, Atalanta and Rangers before he went into management, initially as a player-manager. That started with QPR and included a stint on a similar basis at Sheffield Wednesday – after a period there as a player only – before he took on full-time manager roles with Wednesday, Birmingham and Crystal Palace. He led Wednesday to an FA Cup and League Cup final and Birmingham to a League Cup final. Forest under Brian Clough paid more than £1m to buy Francis from Birmingham in February 1979. His goal against Malmö secured the European Cup in his first season and he was part of the squad that retained the trophy a year later, although he was injured for the final. Francis played 52 times for England from 1977 to 1986, featuring at the 1982 World Cup, where he scored twice. A statement from his family said: “Trevor Francis has died at the age of 69. He had a heart attack at his apartment in Spain this morning. On behalf of the family, this has come as a huge shock to everybody. We are all very upset. He was a legendary footballer but he was also an extremely nice person.” Gary Lineker, a former England teammate, tweeted: “Deeply saddened to hear that Trevor Francis has died. A wonderful footballer and lovely man. Was a pleasure to work alongside him both on the pitch and on the telly. RIP Trevor.” |

I just read that Trevor Francis has died aged 69, great player. Agree, he was one of my idols from my childhood days, you could tell it was him as he had a noticable way of running, and the wavy hair too, very sad news. ichef.bbci.co.uk/onesport/cps/800/cpsprodpb/5618/production/_130504022_gettyimages-611542328.jpgFormer England forward Trevor Francis has died aged 69 after suffering a heart attack in Spain. In 1979 he became Britain's first £1m footballer when he moved from Birmingham City to Brian Clough's Nottingham Forest. He won two European Cups with Forest - in 1979, when he scored the winner against Malmo, and 1980. Francis also won 52 England caps, scoring 12 goals, before embarking on a managerial career. A statement released on behalf of his family said: "This has come as a huge shock to everybody. We are all very upset. "He was a legendary footballer but he was also an extremely nice person." Francis spent half the year in Spain and the rest in Solihull. He suffered a heart attack 11 years ago and had kept himself fit since with daily power walks. He had an annual health check through the League Managers' Association and, according to his spokesman, was "enjoying life very much". Francis lost wife Helen in 2017, when she died after being diagnosed with cancer. They had married in 1974 and had sons Matthew and James together. Born in Plymouth, Francis joined Birmingham as a schoolboy and was the Blues' then-youngest debutant in 1970 aged 16 - a record only beaten by current England and Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham in August 2019. Francis went on to score 119 goals in 280 league appearances before his history-making switch to link up with Clough at Nottingham Forest. After Forest's two European Cup wins, he joined Manchester City before having spells with Italian clubs Sampdoria and Atalanta. A season in Scotland with Rangers followed before he joined QPR, where he also became player-manager. He later performed a similar role at Sheffield Wednesday and helped lead them to both the FA Cup and League Cup finals in 1993, losing both to Arsenal. Francis retired as a player in 1994, shortly before his 40th birthday, having made 632 appearances and scored 235 goals. He then returned to Birmingham as manager between 1996 and 2001 and guided the Blues to the 2001 League Cup final where they lost to Liverpool on penalties. After leaving St Andrew's, his final managerial post was at Crystal Palace where he spent two years. He also worked as a media pundit with Sky Sports and BT Sport. .................................................................................................. Trevor Francis total career stats: Played 835, Goals 294, Clubs: 10 inc Birmingham, Manchester City, Nottingham Forest, QPR, Sampdoria & England. |

Did Trevor Francis ever play against the Rovers ? If he did, it would have been in the 1990-91 season when he played for Sheffield Wednesday in 38 league games in division 2. BRFC were not in the same divisions at any other time, possibly in a cup match in 1970-71, 1977-78 or 1990-91.. |

Chris Bart-Williams dies aged 49 as tributes flood in for former Premier League star..by Alex Richards i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article12472058.ece/ALTERNATES/s615/Chris-Bart-Williams.jpgChris Bart-Williams, the former Sheffield Wednesday and Nottingham Forest midfielder, has died at the age of just 49. Bart-Williams, who was born in Sierra Leone, won 16 England Under-21 caps and one England 'B' cap, spent eight seasons of his 16-year professional career plying his trade in the Premier League. After breaking through at Leyton Orient, he joined Wednesday for a then club-record fee of £275k in 1991. He made 156 appearances for the Owls, scoring 24 goals, before joining Forest in a £2.5million move in 1995. He would spend six-and-a-half years at the City Ground, making 245 appearances and scoring 35 times. He also had spells at Charlton Athletic, Ipswich Town, APOEL in Cyprus and Maltese side Marsaxlokk. Former Nottingham Forest teammate Mark Crossley paid tribute on social media, to both Bart-Williams and Trevor Francis, who died earlier on Monday at the age of 69. Crossley declared: "Devastating and I’m so upset to hear the news of Trevor Francis passing and my former team mate Chris Bart Williams, both so young, it is so sad , RIP Trevor and Chris." In recent years, Bart-Williams had been working in the United States, running CBW Soccer Elite, offering coaching and mentoring to young footballers, as well as recruiting for colleges, living with his wife, Eva. He told Mirror Football in 2018: "I have all this experience in professional football, so it'd be a shame to waste it. "On the coaching side of things, I get out on the field, helping kids who might want to get in their high school team, play at college or make it as a professional. But we help them off the field, too, with mentoring. That's just as important. "We also have the recruitment element, helping kids find the right clubs or colleges. We recruit domestically and internationally. We want to help kids from abroad get into American colleges. It's hard work, but it's rewarding - I love what I do."

Fond tributes were paid to Francis by his former clubs, team-mates and colleagues from within the media.
Nottingham Forest said they were "deeply saddened" and Francis was "a true Forest legend who will never be forgotten". Birmingham City said Francis will "forever be revered as a giant of the club" and he was "the player everyone wanted to see". Sheffield Wednesday said they were also "deeply saddened by the passing of Francis" and said their "thoughts are with Trevor's family and friends at this incredibly difficult time". Sampdoria posted a simple "Rest in peace, Trevor Francis" while Rangers said they were "saddened to hear of his passing". The Football Association tweeted: "We are deeply saddened by the news that Trevor Francis has passed away aged 69. He won 52 caps and scored 12 goals - including two at the 1982 at the World Cup - for the Three Lions between 1977 and 1986. All of our thoughts are with his family, friends and former clubs." The EFL added that Francis was "one of the best English football has ever seen". Viv Anderson, who played with Francis at Forest, posted a tribute on Instagram: "Just heard the unbelievable news regarding Trevor Francis, he was such a wonderful person and fabulous teammate he will be sadly missed, my condolences go to his family and friends RIP." Real Madrid and England midfielder Jude Bellingham, who began his career at Birmingham, posted a photo of of himself as a child meeting Francis. Bellingham wrote: "A very sad day for BCFC and all of football. Beyond legendary, a trailblazer, a great and an icon of the game. The only thing that could exceed his quality and accolades on the pitch was his class off it. Thank you for all the guidance and the benchmarks you set. Rest in peace, King Trevor!" Former England and Rangers team-mate Terry Butcher told BBC Radio 5 Live that Francis would not have looked out of place in the modern game: "He was sophisticated, elegant; modern football would have suited him down to the ground. "He was just class, he really was. He was smooth, he was silky, scored some great goals, a phenomenal player and a very, very nice guy, as everybody says." Match of the Day presenter Gary Lineker, who won 80 caps for England, tweeted: "Deeply saddened to hear that Trevor Francis has died. A wonderful footballer and lovely man. Was a pleasure to work alongside him both on the pitch and on the telly. RIP Trevor." Ex-England goalkeeper Peter Shilton said on Twitter he was "absolutely devastated" to hear about Francis' passing and added he was "such a wonderful gentleman a friend". Former Forest striker Stan Collymore claimed Francis was "the loveliest of men, humble, humorous, always giving of his time and advice" before adding "they say never meet your heroes, well, I met mine and he was an absolute gentleman". Chris Kamara, who worked alongside Francis at Sky Sports, also said he "was a gentleman" and "the first million pound player who always looked a million dollars". Former Crystal Palace striker Mark Bright, who played under Francis' management at Wednesday, added: "The club experienced some great times in the early 1990s, both Trev his wife Helen, were very kind in helping me to settle in at the club, I greatly appreciated it then and now. Love to sons Matthew and James."

I had a look in the programme for the Anglo Scottish cup game in August 77 and his name is on the team sheet. |

Doubt very much the three on here would have referred to her passing given her political and social views |

"We were one soul in two halves.He was the only person who ever loved me unconditionally.I am lost in the bardo without him." Her son Shane took his own life in January 2022. Sometimes people just can't carry on. Very sad. Rest in peace Sinead. |

tbh I am not interested in music so I hadnt heard of her but her death was reported on the radio quite a bit this morning.
Apparently at various times she expressed support for the IRA and Sinn Fein...she was found dead in her home in London.
Speculation that her death was suicide (apparently her son committed suicide) she had taken drugs for 30 years and was known to have mental health issues, it made me think how many people in the music industry die by suicide or from drugs overdoses,something seems wrong.

Sinéad O'Connor's death not treated as suspicious, police say..By Annabel Rackham, Entertainment reporter.i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article30562251.ece/ALTERNATES/s615b/5_Sinead-OConnor-At-Home.jpgPolice say the death of Sinéad O'Connor is not being treated as suspicious, following the discovery of her body on Wednesday. The Irish singer and activist, 56, best known for the song Nothing Compares 2 U, was found at her home in Herne Hill, south London at 11:18 BST. Police say she was "unresponsive" and "pronounced dead at the scene". London Inner South Coroner's Court said no medical cause of death was given and an autopsy will be conducted. The results could take "several weeks" and a decision on whether an inquest will be needed will be decided when they are are known, the court added, O'Connor's family announced the news of her death on Wednesday evening "with great sadness", saying "her family and friends are devastated". She will be remembered for many political statements, including in 1992 when she controversially ripped up a picture of Pope John Paul II during a performance on US TV show Saturday Night Live. Shredding the picture, which she removed from a frame in her mother's home after her death, was a protest against child sexual abuse in the Catholic Church. Tributes have been pouring in for the Brit and Grammy Award-winning artist, including from singer Annie Lennox , who shared a poetic tribute to O'Connor, calling her "fierce and fragile... impulsive, bold and beautiful... with an incredible voice". "May the angels hold you in their tender arms and give you rest," she added. The Smiths singer Morrissey wrote on his website: "She had the courage to speak when everyone else stayed safely silent. She was harassed simply for being herself. Her eyes finally closed in search of a soul she could call her own." The Pretenders' singer Chrissie Hynde told BBC Radio 2: "She was a really fun person, she was such a riot to hang out with. "But she was always angling to stir it up - she really poked the hornets' nest, and [was] certainly a one-off and a huge talent. She is without question in a better place - so fly on, sweet angel." i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article30563332.ece/ALTERNATES/n310p/3_Sinead-OConnor-At-Home.jpg

Outstanding The impact on society is huge 😂😂😂😂 Ahhh Les my dearest friend, back again, where have you been..? In slang, a troll is a person who posts or makes inflammatory, insincere, digressive, extraneous, or off-topic messages online (such as in social media, a newsgroup, a forum, a chat room, an online video game) or in real life, with the intent of provoking others into displaying emotional responses, or manipulating others' perception, thus acting as a bully or a provocateur. The behavior is typically for the troll's amusement, or to achieve a specific result such as disrupting a rival's online activities or purposefully causing confusion or harm to other people. Les, you never answered my questions that i put to you a while ago, just to refresh your memory Les, look below... Les, if your 5 grand-children, 2 at pre school, 1 in high school and 2 who are at University, were wiped out by a gun-tooting maniac(s) in the USA, how would you feel..? Les, these people who are very close to your heart would be killed in seconds, the police catch the perpetrator(s) and hold them, how would you feel Les...? Les, no smoke-screens, just raw emotion, go on Les, let it go and show us all that you have trolled in the past that you are in fact just a simple human being.... |

Aha The wonderful "straw man" argument. So you post up, in all seriousness, a piece (copy and pasted and without any context or indeed comment) about an actress who dies age 97. Wow, that doesn't happen often does it? What's the relevance to the rest of us, could you explain that? Then you insist I explain how I would react if my children or grandchildren were shot. Really? What, in reality do you expect me to say? You accuse me of trolling for actually challenging you for the utter drivel you post up. Right And finally, I don't know because you do not have the balls to declare yourself, you do not know me but choose to address me by my first name as if you do . So do not, unless you are prepared to do the same and declare who you are. Thank you. Tomorrow I will post up about Ms Jones who dies in our village aged 101. I am sure everyone will be fascinated .

Right And finally, I don't know because you do not have the balls to declare yourself, you do not know me but choose to address me by my first name as if you do . So do not, unless you are prepared to do the same and declare who you are. Thank you. Tomorrow I will post up about Ms Jones who dies in our village aged 101. I am sure everyone will be fascinated . Not Ahh Les, Yet another smoke-screen comment from you without answering any of the questions put to you many times.. Les, I have seen all of OFITG over the years and was saddened at her passing, others may be interested and may feel likewise.. Les, You took the mick about a sensitive topic & replied to Trymers post with the Monty Python parrot sketch, Wow Les, well done.. Les, in your words, you say i post utter drivel, your meaningless opinion of course, i will continue to post, so do look out for it in future.. Les, your name is in the public domain and if you look hard enough so is mine on this very forum in fact... Les, the Troll item was in fact Copied and Pasted just like you said and if you think it was about you then that is your business to do so.. Les, in your words - "Then you insist I explain how I would react if my children or grandchildren were shot. Really? What, in reality do you expect me to say?" What i would expect you to say Les is your true gut feelings about your loved ones being killed, just like the Monkeys and the Parrot were.. Les, as you put thank you i will too and also say sleep tight Les, don't let those bed bugs bite...Ciao for now. |
