When you retire, you switch bosses - from the one that hired you, to the one that married you.

Very good player, part of that great Wales side of the 1970s along with Phil Bennett, Gareth Edwards, JPR, etc.NottinghamWhite wrote:JJ Williams ex Wales Rugby Union player has passed aged 72.
JJ Williams was also a top-class sprinter as well as a rugby international and competed in the Commonwealth Games.

Re: The departed 2
Yeah, I heard that too. There was also a nice tribute to him on the news (BBC and ITN). Seemed a nice guy, never heard a bad word about him. Made a lot of people laugh, all harmless humour as well. Sorry he's gone.Barlow Boy wrote:Lovely tribute from Tommy Cannon a few minutes ago on Radio 5 LiveDavycc wrote:Bobby Ball of Cannon and Ball fame hase died after testing positive COVID.
