Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 4,616 Posted February 20, 2021 The Athletic ran a great piece about him the other day, for anyone who has a spare half an hour. https://theathletic.co.uk/2382097/2021/02/14/we-know-justin-fashanu-died-now-let-us-hear-how-he-lived/ He was just born two or three decades too early. But he still deserves to be held up as an inspiration and a hero to many for being brave enough to live his own life when it was no doubt tough enough already at the time because of the colour of his skin.
