Ray Wilkins

R.I.P. to Ray and God bless his family. A lovely guy and a classy footballer.

Absolutely no age. It does make me wonder about excerise and if it’s the be all and end all to longevity when so many athletes have heart problems so soon after retiring from their sport. You’d think keeping really fit into your 30’s or 40’s would store up some sort of long term cardio protection, but in many cases it seems once the regular fitness regimes stop they’re as vulnerable as the rest of us.

There's so much contradiction about exercise, diet, alcohol that it's hard to kinow what to do for the best.

Everything in modertaion seems to be the best advice but I suppose we all hot the alcohol and food to excess more than we do the exercise.

RIP Ray.
