That's sad and scary in equal measures.
A hero of the time - our own Bryan Robson.
Let's hope he has a speedy recovery.

Also got told Gordon Guthrie was in hospital too, at the weekend. The only person to go and visit him, ex manager nigel Clough.

I always knew (and said) Sam Rush was untrustworthy whereas - whatever you thought of Nigel, he was always a man you could trust. Personally I thought he did a great job at Derby considering what he inherited from Wee Billy and Jewell.
