His old boss Phil Brown called him up when he heard the news, and the first thing Dean said to him was 'Listen if I owe you any money I forgot' - haha

No, that’s Morrisey, who was the lead singer for The Smiths

Always thought of Dean Windass as being a northern version of Neil Shipperley.

Get well Dean son. Neil Shipperley the actor from men behaving badly?

[Manuel]

Good grief. My sort of player, to be honest. Best wishes to him and his family.

 

His family said thank you.

[Monsieur merde de cheval]

That's really sad news .
Always liked him
He'll fight till the end 

Respect Deano

Sad news for him and his family, not much you can do about it so he won't be getting better, best hope is its slow but from my Mum being diagnosed Doc did say that its often far more aggressive in the younger people when they get it, older people it tends to take longer which seems to be the case for my mum, just a gradual decline. They call it the long goodbye which is pretty apt when you think about it.

Hope he takes the news ok and makes the most of the time he has with knowing who and what's going on around him, before long he will start to forget almost everything, then the body starts shutting down.

Good player in his day, never world class but a hard-working pro who had a decent career.

All the best Deano son

His son is a bit of a player, isn't he?
