Gulp,  the worst football from a side I have ever seen but a bloody nice bloke despite his years with the chimps.

League Two will be weaker for the loss of Keithball, sad news.

Keith will be sadly missed in Lincolnshire and countrywide.  The England teams inc the under 21s are to wear black armbands as a mark of respect for Keith .

I see England will be wearing black armbands tonight. I guess it just shows how far reaching his influence has been.
RIP big keef

There's a really nice obituary to Keith on a double page spread in today's Guardian Sport which says how influential he was to black managers.
