Very sad news. Dave Sexton was a true visionary in football management and (2nd only to my Dad) was the inspiration for my life of football frustration with Rangers.
RIPComment

We should do more to honour our past players and managers as this would enrich our young supporters with the club history and the love we had for these individuals. Who knows maybe this would rub off on the current squad.Comment

Football Association director of football development, Sir Trevor Brooking:
"It is a sad day for English football. Anyone who was ever coached by Dave would be able to tell you what a good man he was, but not only that, what a great coach in particular he was. In the last 30-40 years Dave's name was up there with any of the top coaches we have produced in England - the likes of Terry Venables, Don Howe and Ron Greenwood. His coaching was revered."

I blew a lot on vodka and tonic, gambling and fags. Looking back, I think I overdid it on the tonic. - The one and only Stanley BowlesComment

I had the honour of briefly chatting with Dave when I was a kid. A true gentleman and without a doubt Rangers best ever manager. I'm welling up here.Comment

Dave is a QPR legend. Thanks for the memories Dave. RIP.'Only a Ranger!' cried Gandalf. 'My dear Frodo, that is just what the Rangers are: the last remnant in the South of the great people, the Men of West London.' - Lord of the Rings, Book II, Chapter I - Many Meetings.Comment

Concur with all of this - the complete manager, shrewd tactician in an age when tactics were hardly thought of and a thoroughly decent bloke. greatest manager in our history, narrowly ahead of jago, venables and francis, and I guess Stock but long before my time that.Comment
