Banks, Bonetti, Lev Yashin, Dino Zoff.....they're all healthy at the mo, right? Firstly, are you mad? Bert Williams & Gil Merrick were top-class keepers, with full international honours & were both legends of the clubs they served so well. Alan Kelly was an international too and also served Preston with distinction. Secondly, Lev Yashin isn't healthy at the mo. He's also dead at the mo. He died in 1990. If you had to make up a Deathlist XI (and subs) of them in their pomp it would have to be: 1 Bert Williams 2 Ray Kennedy 3 Bill Foulkes 4 Paul Madeley 5 Bobby Moncur 6 Eddie Turnbull 7 Tommy Burns 8 Paul Gascoinge 9 Nat Lofthouse 10 Diego Maradona 11 Sir Tom Finney 12 Gil Merrick 13 Velimir Zajec 14 Peter Broadbent 15 Sammy Cox 16 Ivor Broadis (though if it were really MY team - I'd pick Canoville for bias' sake) Fransisco Varallo will be the one I'd say. At 98 you're on borrowed time and it's running out fast. Place your bets 4-1 he'll not hang on much longer. This is a great thread to be part of. Here's my all time DL 11. Some are already passed on, some soon will be. A slight Celtic and Scottish bias - due to my devotion to my beloved Celtic. 1. Gordon Banks (England's greatest keeper. Not passed away - but will be getting on) 2. Jim Craig (Celtic hero. Still living for now) 3. Tommy Gemmell (Celtic hero. Still living and fit for now) 4. Bobby Moncur (Living for now - but has got cancer) 5. Bobby Moore (has passed away) 6. Jimmy Johnstone ( Celtic hero.passed away) 7. Georgie Best (passed away) 8. Jarzinho (Still living and fit for now) 9.Ferenc Puskas. Hungarian legend. passed away) 10. Eusebio. (Still living and fit) 11. Bobby Charlton (Still living and fit) Subs 12. Ron Springett (Don't know if he's living) 13. George Young (Scotland's right - back.) 14. Jack Charlton (Still living and in good health) 15.Bobby Lennox (Celtic hero. Still living - but has a bad heart) 16. Diego Maradona (Drug addict, bad heart. Living for now) 17. Bert Trautmann. (Ex - Man City keeper. Living and still in good health - but will come in handy to have an extra keeper. [/quote]

Former Man Utd player Brian Greenhoff

Update on Bruno Metsu for any Francophones. "cancer de l'estomac qui l'a obligé à s'éloigner des terrains" means that his stomach cancer has spread, right? Because Google translate seems to suggest that it means his cancer has gone to a new country.

A brief visit among the Queen's Own Twitter shows that Sandy Jardine was too ill to make both Rangers' Division 3 trophy award and the end-of-season dinner. Looks like there could be some surrender coming up soon.

Anyone else notice that Chelsea scoring legend Bobby Tambling was in a wheelchair when he was at the match against Swansea?

According to Wikipedia he "is currently suffering from Martorelli's ulcer, a painful leg condition and was admitted to hospital for three months in 2013. He left hospital and was able to travel from his home in Ireland to be the special guest of Chelsea at their home game against Swansea"
