Very sad.. I used to listen to Grandstand years ago.. Horrible news. My missus friends husband recently died in his early 40's after being diagnosed with brain cancer only 6 months earlier, so it can be incredibly shocking and devastating to a family.
very sad news wish thirsty all the best, hes one of the few commentators that you could call an allrounder and his memory and knowledge is outstanding, great entertainer all round top bloke
Sad listened to him a lot on grandstand and he seemed to Love what he did. The young bloke that use to regularly call him and give his tips and they would just chat on air would be sad.
My Father passed away from the effects of Brain Cancer 9 years ago... Tough times for him and the family ahead! Wishing them all the best and God Bless them.
