    No age to go.

    Am sure I remember him playing against us for Grimsby, many moons ago.

    RIP

    That's spooky. I was listening to an episode of Undr the cosh yesterday and his name was mentioned. I thought to myself that he'd passed away, but when I checked, he hadn't (I was thinking of Justin Edinburgh).

    Rip Craig. No age is that.

    Rubbish news, RIP. I remember him in the Grimsby team like it was just the other day.

    Very sad news that quickly puts life into perspective, poor bloke should be just settling into an enjoyable retirement. Rip Craig.

    Diagnosed with cancer last year mate so I suspect it's related to that. Very sad news and 60 is no age.

    Yes. 1-1 late in the game . Big Dave lands in the net, the ball doesn't. They then somehow score twice. Not a good day.

    Edit - just found the video. It seems that Dave couldn't even get himself into the net, which is pretty apt.

    Would he have been at Grimsby at the same time as Batch ?
