Paul Mariner, died aged 68 of brain cancer, he had a glittering career mostly at Ipswich and for England. Way too young to die, but a lot of that era's players are having brain-related issues, like cancer and Alzheimers, Dominic Matteo also had a brain tumour but survived.

RIP thread seems to be the right place to pay respects to Jinxsy the old 3 tuns bouncer…. Always fair and you knew by the way he stared at you with those bulgy eyes that you needed to calm down a bit.

There was a similar type bouncer at the Hinckley Knight on the A5. Think his name was Albert (but I could be wrong) He always gave you one chance and if you were stupid enough to not heed it, you were 100% heading for an early sleep.
RIP Paul Mariner. A terrific forward in a class team at the time.
