Leeds United legend, Norman "Bites Yer Legs" Hunter, has died after contracting COVID-19:
The highlight reel just shown on the BBC would have seen Norman have a very short career in the modern game.

@MiketheSnow The famous 1975 tussle between Norman Hunter and Franny Lee. They were England room mates:

@JC Fuck, saw them when they were here in Feb. Really good show (the "new" lead singer is an arse - jokes about CWC final had cups thrown at him - and he reacted like some tough guy which he clearly isn't).
Great band and Misex were fantastic too.

Misex? Did they dig up a singer?

"Dig up" - nice, well sort of.
Yeah, and he was bloody brilliant too. Steve Balbi, a kind of Johnny Depp lookalike character. Would go and see them again anytime.

Aw c'mon. I've been waiting 30 years to use that joke.

And now Deane Sutherland from Satellite Spies has died too, of some shitty skin cancer at 58. I met Deane a long time ago and he was a good guy. It was a real shame he and Mark fell out. SS was a quintessential 80s band. Their sound has dated a bit but I still break it out occasionally. RIP Deane.

Roy, of Siegfried and Roy, has died aged 75. Covid-19 complications apparently.
Was he the one that got bitten by the tiger a few years back?
Yes. Lucky to live then too.
