Alerted by a friend who listened to the original broadcast, I've just been listening to the repeat of the BBC Radio 4 programme The Last Word. It's their weekly obituary programme; and last Thursday's featured a tribute to Ronnie in which, in addition to playing some old clips of Ronnie speaking about parts of his career [including the story about Tom Finney which was in the LT article], the presenter [Matthew Bannister] also interviewed "Duggie". It doesn't tell us anything we didn't already know; but was good to listen to.

Btw, it begins with a clip of the minute's clapping from the Chelsea game, which seemed to impress Matthew Bannister as a way of paying tribute.

If anyone else wants to listen, the programme can be caught for a few days more via the BBC website and going to their iPlayer "Listen Again" page.

I would certainly love rovers to name one of the stands after him.

Let's hope that the reports that our new owners are planning to have the Ground re-named are wrong; and that they take this excellent suggestion on board instead.

I hope that there'll be some way all the tributes on here can be passed on to his family to let them know [as if they didn't already] the esteem in which we all held Ronnie.

May he Rest in Peace indeed.

He was the cornerstone of the team I grew up watching in the late 1950s. Like many on here, I met him briefly in later years and felt I'd met not just a Rovers player but a Rovers fan too. You won't get many like him in years to come.
