Re: Sir Henry Cooper dies
A sad loss of a rare gentleman in his or any sport these days.
I always remember the story he told of a bump between his car and another driver. Henry and his brother ( who was the spit of Henry) got out to talk to the other driver, who finding himself between the two Coopers said, "You're only brave because there's two of you."

Sad news indeed.
I watched a film earlier which had a line something like 'we're at an age where life stops giving, and starts taking'. First Richard Holmes, now Big 'Enery.
RIP Gents.
