Died at the age of seventy. Must admit I didn’t think he’d live that long after his Parkinson’s diagnosis- classy player who was probably a better midfield player than he was a striker.

The first player I ever saw score live. Molineux November 71. I wore an Arsenal resettle that day. Arsenal were 1 up at half time. Wolves scored 5 in the second half, it snowed and I cried at the scoreline,
RIP Ray.

Seen it Paul. Brings back some memories.Quote:

Went off him a bit when he signed for Liverpool but there was no doubting he was one of the great players of his generation.
He was a fair player too from what I can remember, unlike those dirty barstewards from across the Pennines!
Only 33 when he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease bless him.
RIP Ray.
One of the best players in the league in his day. I remember Bob Paisley saying that he had more enquiries about him than any other player.
You tried twice… good effort🤣. I think i’d have resettled for a corsageQuote:
