‘Cyrille Regis: Ex-West Brom and England forward dies aged 59’

I was fortunate to play against him - only in a 5-a-side game many ears ago - yet this man was not only a quality sportsman, nor just a professional footballer, nor just a ‘mere’ man - this guy was a legend, a gentleman, and stood against racism and hatred of those that were considered ‘different’ at a time where it was considered ‘the norm’ to hate those that were.

RIP Cyrille.

You’ll Never Walk Alone.
