I am not prone to what might be called “post Diana mawkishness”, in fact quite the opposite. Today is however the 12th anniversary of the murder, in Turkey, of 2 fellow Leeds United fans, Kevin Speight and Christopher Loftus. Amongst the Twitter tributes I have just seen one by Kevin’s son George;
12 years on feels like 12 days! RIP Dad
It is a message and emotion all fans of football will understand, and one I felt I could not allow to pass without comment. Our thoughts are with all members of these 2 families, and those of any other fans who went to a game and did not return.
