Davide Astori, captain of Fiorentina and Italy international centre-half has died from a sudden illness aged just 31.

No age at all, so sad.
Thoughts with his family.

You are a year out NW. It was 1954, a year notable, at an international news level, for Roger breaking 4 minutes for the mile and me going in the Army for my National Service.
Just think NW, while I was waist deep in muck and bullets, you were only 1 year old, ah!

NW you forgot to put in 1953 that England won the Ashes back as well thanks to YCC captain Len Hutton
