Totally wrong about Jamie Theakston. I saw him once at a party and he spoke to me for some time about Sussex and the Albion - much to the annoyance of people who wanted to talk luvvie with him. He seemed far happier talking about sport than making other small talk. And he was very well-informed about the Albion.

Very sad to hear the news about Jamie.

He wrote a very kind email supporting Fans United when plans were in their infancy.

Get better soon, mate.

Had a chat with Mark a few times around that era as we lived near the Lion and Lobster until 2002 and he used to drink there and the Robin Hood (and, er, everywhere else) which were my locals. If he was only slightly inebriated it was a good day - loved a shant at that time. Lovely bloke as I recall and funny in real life.

Remember seeing him a few times at Gillingham.

I'm not, in any way, wishing Jamie anything but the very best of health but I do blame the media for sensationalising what is, in fact, a stage one cancer scare, addressed, normally, by out patient day surgery, as has happened to so many. I feel this undermines the very real fight others with far more complex and advanced cancers face, I await the flaming but wanted to put this into context, and give my honest opinion.

Not sure there is ever a need for a 'my cancer is worse than your cancer' competition, is there?

I had 'no cancer' after my first prostate biopsies and was happy to share the relief on here. I still don't feel I have to get into the sea about that. :shrug:

Apologies if I'm incorrectly tasting your flavour.

I'm not in a position to watch that video with sound on, is his conclusion "because I'm a twat?"

Slightly annoying watch but his YouTube vids were not made for people of my age :lolol:
He did play for Newhaven FC though, don’t think he made the first team but was in the U21 or U23 squad when my son played.
There is a video on YouTube of Newhaven v Hashtag United and he’s in the team with my son.
