A Taxi driver informen about Diego’s passing yesterday afternoon. I knew immediately that I wanted to share my grief with some genuine Liverpool supporters.

Later in the afternoon I called in at the fruit shop in our Market Stall where the owner and his son have been Liverpool season ticket holders. We discussed their loss at length as I purchased some of the excellent fruit that is always on offer.

Diego is a sad loss to all football fans. His ability was immense and it is unfortunate that injuries often limited the number of games he played in a seaso.

Rest in peace Diego and thanks for wonderful memories of an exceptional footballer.
