Stan Collymore Sending all the best wishes in the world to Denis Law and family. One of the greatest players ever and one of the most humorous, warm and genuine too. Heartbreaking to read his statement, dementia truly is a savage illness. Keep fighting, King.

Neil Hume Sad news , it’s an awful condition, took care of my father for 6 years after he was diagnosed with vascular dementia, he sadly found his peace back in April.

Craig McKeith Ah, what a shame. My boyhood hero and one of the main reasons I started to support United when we moved to Manchester from Scotland in the early 60s. Like Best and Charlton, a real legend and a unique player.
