Rest in peace Desmond Llpyd Drummond.
Absolutely devastated.
I didn't see that coming. You think your heroes will live forever and in my mind this fella will.
He was my RL hero before he even signed for warrington due to his exploits on superstars.
Whilst he was still at Leigh my dad knew a couple of dessies mates and he came home from work one day with a giant signed poster of Des playing for GB and a signed testimonial brochure from his Leigh testimonial.
Can't remember the number of times I read that testimonial brochure from front to back.
When we signed him it was like all my birthdays and Christmases had come at once.
My thoughts go out to his family and friends..
Legend
Dessie came in the kings head a couple of seasons ago,great to chat with him he said no one really recognises him in Bolton yet he got mobbed in the pub and outside on winwick street,,
Sleep tight Des Drummond..
