Goodness me... that news has come as a shock. I did wonder why he hadn't been around on the forums, in particular the Sin Bin where he was usually handing sundry right-wing reactionaries their @rses on there.
RIP Geoff with a 'G'.

RIP, will be sadly missed. I also wondered why no posts for a while. A very respected poster on here.

That's really sad. Never met the man but always respected what he had to say. Intelligent, informed and spoke to people on the forum genuinely, as if he was in the same room as them.

| A Gentleman and a Scholar, my abiding memory of him is of sitting in the sun outside a bar in Perpignan for the exhibition game against London in 2005, we spent all afternoon there chatting and laughing and when the bill came for the beers it was in excess of 200 euros THEN we went for food 
The best compliment I can ever pay anyone is when you spend your first five minutes with them and you think you've known them all your life - that was Geoff, his online persona wasn't an online persona, it was him, open, honest and full of humour, a nice bloke, my sincere condolences to Gill. |

A sad, sad day.
Always sad when such a well thought of gent such as El B passes on. By the level of praise for the man from his friends on here shows the measure of the man.
I never met the bloke in real life, but it's good to know that if I had done it really would have been as sparkling as some of his posts / views on here and that's good to know.
RIP El B.

Never met the guy, but I enjoyed (genuinely) watching and joining in with many exchanges on here. Which was always a pleasure whether we agreed or not.
May he rest in peace, and my thoughts go to his family and friends.
