RIP Hughie, a proper legend and a damn nice bloke as well. I only saw him a few years ago when he was playing a veterans’ game and he was in fine form then. This is one of my favourite pics of mine of

Khalid Abdullah , owner / breeder of some of the greatest racehorses ever 

A massive name in the horseracing world. He owned some of the finest thoroughbreds of all time and was happy to keep them in racing, not packing them off to stud at the first opportunity. Those who knew him personally, always spoke fondly about him.

David Barclay, one of the paranoid, tax-"avoiding" Telegraph ownership brothers. A man 50% responsible for not just ruining a once-quality newspaper, but bankrolling the ambitions of our current Prime Minister by paying him £270,000pa for regular columns of self-serving waffle, occasionally leavened with casual racism.

Twitter has gone ballistic about the BBC's headline calling him "talented but flawed" when he murdered a woman.

"I am the avenging angel; I come with wings unfurled, I come with claws extended from halfway round the world. I am the God Almighty, I am the howling wind. I care not for your family; I care not for your kin. I come in search of terror, though terror is my own; I come in search of vengeance for crimes and crimes unknown. I care not for your children, I care not for your wives, I care not for your country, I care not for your lives." - (c) Jim Boyes - "The Avenging Angel"
