its been a sad year considering the number of footballers who have died over the last 12 months
they have all been tragic losses and i cannot imagine how those who knew them well can bear such difficult times - and as Graham said, my hear goes out to them
RIP Phil O'Donnell (Motherwell Captain)
RIP Oscar Carmelo Sanchez (Bolivian defender and captain)
RIP Antonio Puerta (Sevilla Defender)
RIP Chaswe Nsofwa (Zambian Striker)
and RIP everyone else who died this year playing the beautiful game |
