Aged 76.

Don't think he had been in the best of health in recent years.

There's not too many of that great Leeds side from 64-76 left now is there.

Always thought of Terry Yorath as Wales' Graham Souness but not quite as good and not as dirty.

Do I remember him correctly in squatting momentarily on the ball in showboating mode when Wales were 3-nil up against Scotland?

I’d forgotten that he was at the Bradford City fire as assistant coach. RIP Terry, a true servant to Welsh football.

Re: Terry Yorath has passed

A Welsh great loved him in the red shirt. I like the comparison with Souness above, whilst he wasn't that good or dirty he was as passionate.

Finally didn't his son die young from some kind of heart defect?

Yes, he was 15 years old and he had an undiagnosed heart problem. I think he collapsed in the back garden.

Dreadfully sad news.
Great bloke who had more than his fair share of heartache.
RIP, legend.
