    Oh dear. How sad. Nevermind.

    Insert Gif of your own choice. That scum isn't worth enough of my time to do it.

    They have made it sound like someone may have got him. It's a shame he didn't live for many more years as now he can't be punished any more.

    Disappointed about Gradi having his MBE removed over it. Was respected as a manager but now tarnished. Sounds to me like he trusted Bennell and wouldn't have ever thought him as a predator

    Back in the day he'd have been hung drawn and quartered and his head displayed.

    As a football manager he should have been aware of what was going on TBH. Clearly not implicated directly, but I can see why the honour was withdrawn.

    Watch the documentaries, Gradi was informed of various concerns along with John Bowler, the Crewe Chairman. Both chose to ignore everything and do nothing.

    Gutted. He should have spent a few more decades in solitary
