Ah fuck. Awful news. Always forget his age as he isn’t really in the limelight these days. So my memories of him and his appearance are from 15 plus years ago. Coming up 75. 
 

Get well soon, King.

Ah, shit. Please kick it's arse, KK

 

I know he could care less right now and hopefully it's irrelevant and he ends up with us for years to come, but it's got me thinking about how much so many of us have hoped he finally comes back to SJP to feel the love just one more time. It'll sting just that little bit more if he leaves us before that comes true.

King Kev. My earliest toon memories were the 7-1 demolition of Leicester in the 93 season. We were 6-0 up at half time playing incredible football.

 

Lost my dad at a similar age the same way so praying for Kev. I know my dad would have been.

Remember him joining us, probably the season after I first went to a match. You could have a caricature outline of just his (70s/80s) hair and chin and know exactly who it is.


Given us great memories as a player, manager and contestant (Superstars as mentioned above….did he do it a lot or do I just remember it so well it seems he did it loads?)

 

Best to him and his family.

Awful news. Absolutely love the bones of this man. Fingers crossed he makes a full recovery. Hopefully his name is sung from the rafters tonight.

Love the guy. Dread the day.

Lost me mam to this as a kid but will always have, after going in the dark days with her, because of this man that she got to see a club transformed and her son getting to experience joy out the club at last before it was too late. Remember we got a card the following week from someone who wrote  "(Mam's name) will be laughing her socks off" at us getting promotion - I could easily imagine that.

Probably for many of us a disproportionate amount of good and shared memories are due to him.

 

Such a legend and so important to this club that it was acknowledged in real time.
