Yorkshire & England captain Ray Illingworth passed away age 89yo
I remember watching Ray play as a 7yo kid in that wonderful Yorkshire team which included the likes of:
Boycott, Sharp, Hampshire, Close, Binks, Wilson, Trueman, etc.
So lucky to witness one of the great cricketers of all-time, a true legend.
RIP Ray

RIP Janice.
Moving tribute from Janice's family
Her husband, Paul Berry, said: “I’ve lost the love of my life and I’m going to spend the rest of it half a person. She had my back from the day we met, you couldn’t possibly ask for more love and loyalty from a wife.”
Her daughter, Blue, 25, praised her mother for forging a path for women in the media, saying: “Mum I love you. You paved the way for me to have an incredible life. You were a trailblazer for so many women to go conquer and succeed. The first woman to host Top of the Pops and the first woman to have her own daily show on Radio 1.”
Her son, Fred, 33, referred to his mother as an “absolute G”, adding: “She wasn’t only a mum to me but a whole bunch of my friends that she took in and cared for and I’ll never forget everything she has done for me.”
Long’s father, Collin, said: “I’ve not only lost a daughter but a true friend that I’ll never forget.”
The initial news of her death came from her agent, Nigel Forsyth. He said: “Janice was a wonderful, warm human being and exceptional broadcaster. She told a brilliant story and always made you roar with laughter with her sharp wit.”
