R.I.P.

I remember Henry the V111 , so what is your point.

Speaking of Maxes...is Max Cryer still alive?

Pretty sure he is.

Terry Nutkins - good presenter, never boring to watch, mad hair. Raised a sea lion called Gemini. RIP.

Michael Clarke Duncan. Always had a great presence in his movies.

Andy Williams - Introduced the Osmonds to the World.....Sunday roast will never be the same

Even worse

John Bonds...381 appearances for West Ham, passed away age 79....Black armbands for the weekend I say

 Yeah John Bond was quintessentially the 70's footy manager for me. It was also pretty sad seeing how old Paul Power looked with the tributes.

So I posted this song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10dmK7O-KSY) in another thread and then googled up Don Estelle after reading some of the comments.  He had a Christchurch connection according to the wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Estelle.

RIP lovely boy!

 Dallas star Larry Hagman. One of my favourites at the time. Also in' I dream of Jeannie.'

RIP

Former Chelsea and Man United manager Dave Sexton. He was appointed by Bertie Mee in 1966 to be Arsenal 1st team coach and in a couple of books I've read by Frank McLintock and Peter Storey, it was Sexton who basically ran the team and not Mee. He was regarded as a visionary back then and McLintock and Storey say he was one of the best coaches they ever worked under.

RIP.

 Sven Hassel - I never read any of his books but my brother did and loved them, the covers were something out of this world. A mystery geezer as some said he never fought for the Nazi's against the Russians but Sven then produced documents that suggest he was a tank commander and did win his x2 iron crosses.

the finest exponent of war-porn that ever lived.

Gott in Himmel!

I looked on his wiki page and I must have read most of his books (not that I can remember any of the details).

War-porn as you say.

(budda-budda-budda. Arrggh! They got me sarge! Teufel!  Take that Ivan.  Hande-hoche Englander Schweinhund. etc etc.)

 Huw LLoyd-Langton sometimes guitarist with Hawkwind and had his own band. A very nice bloke and friend to those that knew him. Never heard anyone say a bad word about him.

Check out  Rocky Paths by Hawkwind on you tube, incredible track.

Steve Andrews, singer of Vas Deferens  and well-known Wellington punk-about-town.

Good bloke, sad news.

Patrick Moore - TV astrologer aged 89years.

The Night Sky was his programme.

Steve Andrews  - of Vas Deferens 

Real sad.

Ravi Shankar. He heavily influenced George and the rest of the Beatles, who in turn helped shape modern pop/rock/blues music and gave artists the ability to write their own songs (even when many many many shouldn't). His death leaves a pretty large void in the musical world.

One of his collaborations with Philip Glass:

Gerry Anderson creator of Thunderbirds............Parker was always my favourite !!

Tong Greig.  1946-2012.  Hard and fast...right out of the meat of the bat...a great commentator.

RIP Greggy.

 RIP. Always enjoyed his comments. Was a great player.

Yeah, very sad. Was wondering why he wasn't involved this season, was he quite sick?

I think he was very sick !!

Ok he wasn`t sick as such.....Heart Attack !!

Yeah that - heard Chapelli saying they gave him a few months but all signs were positive following that until his ticker gave it up.

RIP big fella.

 Roy Cox.  RIP

A long time servant of football in New Zealand.

 Mike Singleton - The guy who wrote The Lords of Midnight and Doomdark's Revenge those fantastic games for the ZX Spectrum. Strategy mixed with RPG elements. Many Games today doff a cap in Mike's direction,. He died a few months ago and I missed it as he was not very famous.

Great characters such as  Farflame the Dragon Lord, Utarg of Utarg, Thormand the Fey... Just amazing games for the times. Truly a giant of the Golden age of Home Computers.

Gordon Mooney.

Drycleaner to NZ Football and anyone/everyone in Auckland football.

Mr Gordy used to run a drycleaners just off Dominion Road in Auckland where he converted one whole room to a Football Kingz shrine.  He was the Kingz Mad Butcher, always talking the club, always in the middle of Bloc 5 and a lover of the game in New Zealand.  Ventured off to the 2003 Confeds cup and followed the Kingz and All Whites all over the country and into Aus.

A great supporter of NZ Football.

Well said HN. And thank you for posting it on here, as i probably would not have known otherwise.

RIP Mr Gordy.

I think he featured once on Miles Davis and Martin Devlins show House of Football on Sky a few years back. Like you say, he was like the Kingz version of the Mad Butcher.

RIP

RIP

Sir Paul Holmes
