Ron Saunders Obituary

Recommended Posts

Those of a certain age may be interested in Ron’s obituary in today’s Times :

https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/register/ron-saunders-obituary-67rksrx20

Best bit for me :

“ He never forgave Sir Arthur South for the nature of his departure from Norwich. When Saunders took a Villa team back to the city he asked the coach driver to divert to South’s house and pull up outside. Ray Grayson, the Villa winger recalled : “ The coach just stopped outside the house so that he could have a swear and cuss at it for a few minutes. Then we drove off again “ “

Priceless 😀

Do you think Ray Grayson is related to Ray Graydon? Or maybe Larry’s brother ? 😂
