That's a shame. Bloody great childhood memories of '66 and '70 World Cups. Tragically lost an eye in a car crash which effectively ended his football career.
Four of them gone now, Moore, Wilson, Ball and now Banks. I imagine it'll speed up now with them all getting to their top 70's / 80's. Rovers players Fred Pickering and Mike Harrison from the same generation passing away within the past fortnight.
btw unless I missed it (and correct me if I'm wrong) but we've had a minutes silence and black armbands for two the last two home matches for an Argentinian footballer who 3 weeks back no one had heard of and who never played a match in England whilst I can not remember hearing a mention for Mike Harrison or Vice President Dr Milton Jeffries. Black armbands and an announcement and a mention on the screen for both plus Fred should be carried out for the next home match.
