Seemed like a nice chap who genuinely enjoyed his work.

Years ago, the Missus and I were in an eatery someplace on the Merchant City (the culinary details are both vague in my recollection and irrelevant to the anecdote).

We were sat upstairs and there was a general conversational hubbub within the estalishment.

I became aware of a distinctive sounding voice cutting through the murmering, it wasn't loud but the distinctive enunciation caused it to carry.

I said to 'er indoors "Someone sounds a bit like Motty".
Not for the first time in our marriage she had no clue what I was talking about, so I proffered an explanation and went about quenching hunger pangs.
A wee while later I went to the loo and, lo and behold, it WAS Motty sat in the downstairs bit of the establishment.

His distinctive voice and natural projection ensured I'd heard him upstairs.

RIP fella.

[Donanddusted]

Very few distinctive commentators left.
RIP.

Betty Boothroyd - Former Labour MP and Speaker in the House of Commons (possibly the best one that I can remember)

I actually bought a copy of her autobiography just last week.

RIP

She wouldn't have put up with any of Boris's shïte.

A lot of famous people dying recently.

Just Fontaine - French player who holds the record of scoring 13 goals in 6 matches in the 1958 World Cup. Obviously this doesn't count for anything in the modern game as everything in football was shyte before the great reset of 1992.

Allan McGraw. Ex Morton player and Manager.
