Death in Vegas

Recommended Posts

 

Nigeria's Stephen Keshi dies of a heart attack at 54, though the :sherlock: in me does wonder as his wife died of cancer 6 months ago.

Not of their WC generation, he did win the Cup of Nations as both a player and manager.http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36476685

 

Shuaibu Amodu, who managed Nigeria for six separate spells, has died aged 58. He died three days after Stephen Keshi, the man he replaced twice and was replaced by once.

Wow. I love coincidental deaths. Nothing happens by chance.

Silly me. I thought a former footballer's death would have been mentioned in the former footballers forum.

Remind me who they all are. Paul Ince in the middle, and I recognise several others but their names are escaping me right now.

Of course! Thanks. How could I forget Gary Speed. :(

Funny, I didn't recognise Jamie Redknapp at all, although can see it's him now.
