This report from last year shows how his latter years were a losing battle with dementia in which his mind and memories were lost to him... https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/heartbreaking-story-one-aston-villas-15020929 This may sound harsh but I can only imagine for Ron that the end has come as a happy release .. Bless him and others suffering similarly from this wicked condition … R.I.P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great bloke, who went the way of Johnny Ball for not towing the Boys Buggery Club line Bellamy, who was born in London but lived in County Durham, later attracted criticism for dismissing global warming. In 2004, he described it climate change as "poppycock" and later said it cost him his TV career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the most surreal gigs I ever went to, sometime in the 80’s at the Locarno, Shane was wrecked when he came on stage and drank a bottle of JD whilst performing, sounded great to me, but I’d partaken of a glass or two as well.

I think I was there too mate! Was it the one where Spider had to take over on vocals as Shane was so out of it he kept repeating the same line over and over (Streams Of Whiskey I think)? I remember the sprung floor going up and down by what felt like about a foot during Sally MaClennane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the sprung floor going up and down by what felt like about a foot during Sally MaClennane. That sounds about right, I remember the floor moving, I recall singing the same line over again, I had two tickets one for me and one for a pretty Irish lady I knew, but she stood me up, so I did a fair impression of Shane myself that night and some of my recollection is a little hazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
