Miguel Sanchez Posted June 23 Author Share Posted June 23 Week 25 update Loads. First this week, Paul Spencer: Dario G star Paul Spencer dies aged 53 after cancer diagnosis | Ents & Arts News | Sky News Quote Dario G star Paul Spencer has died at the age of 53 following a cancer diagnosis. The dance music producer, whose hits included Sunchyme and Carnaval De Paris, was diagnosed with stage four rectal cancer in 2023 and regularly posted about his condition on social media. "It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Paul Spencer earlier today," the musician's family said as they announced the news on social media. The original group, named after then manager of Crewe Alexandra FC, Dario Gradi, was best known for their debut single Sunchyme which reached number two on the UK singles chart in 1997. It was kept off the top spot by Sir Elton John's tribute to Princess Diana, Candle In The Wind. A year later the trio released Carnaval De Paris for the 1998 FIFA World Cup - with the track peaking at number five in the UK singles chart. Oh, go on then Spencer died at 53 so he's worth 72 Base Points for @chomp my root and LoonsYouthTeam, with a Deadly Duo bonus giving chompers 97 points and LYT 133 points. ========== Second death this week is former St. Mirren player Billy Abercromby: St Mirren legend Billy Abercromby dies aged 65 - BBC Sport Quote Billy Abercromby, St Mirren's 1987 Scottish Cup-winning captain, has died aged 65. The former midfielder was a youth product and made his first appearance in 1976 before going on to play a total of 367 times. He spent 13 seasons with the Buddies and was also part of the side that won the First Division title in 1976-77. Abercromby went on to famously captain St Mirren to their third - and most recent - Scottish Cup triumph in 1987 after a 1-0 win over Dundee United at Hampden. I think it's worth sharing @Molotov's post here: On 18/06/2024 at 23:02, Molotov said: As I said when I put my first ever entry into this mad area of the forum…. I had met and talked with Aber a number of times down the years. Despite the challenges he faced off the park after his career ended he was so humble about his playing career. He was extremely proud of playing for St Mirren and helping is finally win the 1987 Scottish cup. The last captain to lead an all Scottish side to the trophy. He will be sadly missed by all those who knew him but remembered by all who saw him represent the Buddies. That dressing room of our heroes during the golden decade of 77-87 is one shirt lighter unfortunately. What a defensive midfielder he was. Priceless in todays game. https://cairterscorner.com/2022/04/10/billy-abercromby/ RIP Aber. Great book if anyone’s interested. Abercromby died at 65 so he's worth 60 points for Mr. petrol bomb, with a Solo Shot giving him an extra 50, as well as a Captain bonus for a total of 170 points. ============ Final death this week is baseball man Willie Mays: Willie Mays obituary | Baseball | The Guardian Quote In America’s golden age, the 1950s, when baseball was still the national pastime and New York was the unofficial centre of the world, the city had three baseball teams that were each blessed with an outstanding centre-fielder. Brooklyn’s Dodgers, for decades loveable losers until Jackie Robinson broke baseball’s apartheid, had Duke Snider. The dynastic Yankees, the team of Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig and Joe DiMaggio, boasted Mickey Mantle. And just across the Harlem River from Yankee Stadium, the Giants had Willie Mays. Mays, who has died aged 93, was the first black superstar of the post-Robinson era of integration, and though arguments persist as to whether he or Mantle was the greatest of the three, or indeed greater than the legendary Ty Cobb, he was inarguably baseball’s most exciting player. There are a lot of baseball references and baseball people in this article. I don't know anything about baseball but he seems to have been quite good and I recognise his name, so that's about as famous as a baseball man can get. Mays died at 93 so he's worth 33 Base Points for @Savage Henry, with a Solo Shot taking that to 83 points. I think that's everything, so the standings look like this: 1. mozam76 528 2.

alta-pete Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 @mr petrol bomb - I’ve never seen him post on here before and his account now seems to be deleted - gets Billy Abercromby, has him as his Captain and a solo shot? And I don’t see him listed on the leaderboard either?! I’m sensing some sort of jiggery pokery! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
