As a fully paid up member of this non voluntary club, I wish Ray all the very best in his rehab. Tis a long, boring and arduous journey, but the destination is magical, unappreciated by so many.

Which part Bongo?

I also had heart attack back in April 2016 - Non voluntary club.

Tis a long, boring and arduous journey- Rehab

The destination is magical- Recovery, appreciating what life brings, the love of family and friends.

Unappreciated by so many- So many people intent on destroying the happiness of others with hate and bitterness.

Just adding all my best wishes to Ray in his recovery. :heart:

I'd been wondering how you were getting on, Exiled. It sounds like its been a tough journey. I think we sometimes forget just how precious life and our health is, and such horrible scares truly make us appreciate what and who is important to us. Keep well my friend. Oh and no more dodging the salad drawer. :) x

A wonderful player and came across as a really nice man.

Earliest memories are of a wonderkid gracing the then horrendous Stamford Bridge in the early-mid 70s. He was even known by a nickname ‘Butch’, which to a starry eyed kid from Brum was super cool, just like ‘Chico’ was.

The only time that I heard or read anything negative about him was that he was TOO nice.

Not bad that is it Ray? TOO nice.
