      His mum's rang me today, it was natural causes. It doesn't make it any easier for me, my best mates still not here. Hope it makes it easier for his family though knowing he didn't leave them

    Still sobering up after our annual punters club divvy up yesterday.

    This thread did the trick. Awful news. The lad just coming into the best part of his life too. No age at all.

    Sincere condolences to his family and friends.

    RIP fellow White.

    Same here. RIP Sharps. Clearly a decent, well-loved bloke. Utterly tragic.

    First knew him on Burnden Aces then used to char fairly regularly at home and aways, top lad.

    37 is absolutely no age and it really does put everything into perspective.

    Rest easy big fella.
