Just heard the news that legendary football commentator John Motson has passed away aged 77.
He commentated on almost 2,500 games during his 50 year career with the BBC. To me, he was the voice of football and will be sadly missed. A true professional.
I am not the slightest bit interested in football any more, but I do remember with pleasure John Motson in the days when I was. I had no idea he was that age, but that is just a reminder of my own age, that I don’t see how old everyone else is.
Only a day or so after Dickie Davis died as well.
