Sad news. Remember him as a player. By all accounts a good bloke as well.

Peace through superior firepower.

Roddy Doyle has done a rather lovely wee dialogue on his Facebook page, highlighting that Wilkins was many people's first great player that was the same age as them, given he captained Chelsea at 18. Also pointing out that he played against both Best and Giggs.
