He was in a band called ‘the wanted’, lived round the corner from me. Married, 2 kids 33 years old, died today from brain cancer.
Fuc*ing tragic , 33? Seriously makes you wonder if there’s a higher power, how things like this could happen.
Very sad.

Poor bloke. Some get a cruel role of the dice. He dealt with the situation with a lot of dignity and was even back touring with his band mates. RIP x

Incredibly tragic. Cancer is becoming far more prevalent than it used to be. what is it - 2 in 1 people will get it nowadays?
Cancer death rate has increased 17% since 1990.

I'm convinced the Cause, once its found, will be something we do or have taken for granted as part of modern life. and it wouldn't surprise me at all if it's something like microPlastics.

The fight against cancer is one of the largest battles humans will ever fight.

"It was a Team effort, I guess it took all players working together to lose this one"

that might explain why he was seen at Bromley football club a lot, although he was a northerner I assumed he must’ve lived round that area

Yeah I think he was from Bolton. My girl used to go to his wives dance class, not some flash place, just a rented hall in Orpington.
My old man died of cancer when he was 40, I thought that was quite old as a youngster.
Seems mad that Brady, Sutcliffe etc live to be old men , when decent family men can go so young. Probably why I’m not religious to be honest.

40?? Sorry to hear that, I lost my dad when he was 60 and it seemed bad enough!!

You’re right, it doesn’t make sense, not that I’ve ever been religious, but it definitely went out the window for good watching my dad die a slow and painful death 30 years ago
