[Football] Ray Wilkins 'fighting for life' after heart attack

[Questions]

Anybody who plays for Chelsea and Man Utd and still is well respected and liked equally by fans shows what a decent sort he is. Let’s hope he pulls through.

He had a lot booze problems...guessing this played a part. I personally thought he was a bit of a knob, for many reasons, but I hope he pulls through.

Bit uncalled for maybe?

Wow.First I knew of it.Top guy.Has or had a drink problem it seems.Hope he pulls through.

Sky sports news just said it happened on Wednesday yet it only hit the news last night I'm guessing?

A knob?

I was listening to him on TalkSport one morning last week, and thought that he didn't sound his old-self. I was aware of his last drink driving incident.

I hope he recovers from this. A gentlemen, and a rarity in that he stood up to Abramovic (told him to get out of the Chelski dressing room when he came in to meddle).

Hope he recovers soon. Remember that awful game in the 90s where it all got a bit mad and one of our fans ran on the pitch and started pushing him. Links with the club too with his brother Dean who played for us for several years. I hope you make a speedy recovery Ray.

Like other sentiments on here - get well soon Ray. A true gent!

Listening to the Alan Brazil show with guest Ray Wilkins, you think only 1 person will have a serious health problem.

Keep fighting Ray, and AB is a legend just being still here.

Met him at the County Cricket ground a few years back where he was doing a Q&A. Had a lot of time for everyone, and spoke highly of the Albion, even in light of his brother's sacking. Came across really well and talked sense. Get well soon, Ray.

Older posters might, like me, recall some a cracking goal he scored that featured in the opening credits of The Big Match way back when. This was before he morphed into 'the crab'. He seemed like a very genuine guy - dignified, kind and generous in his comments.

This. Hope he recovers.
