Hugh McIlvanney

[huds1475]

Has retired this weekend, as a full time writer. As a tribute, The Sunday Times have published his best articles from the last 20 years as a supplement in today's paper.

Some serious quality in there and a great reminder of some classic sporting moments, people, situations during that period.

Would recommend any sports fan seek these out. Probably worth an online subscription in their own right (or a 30 day free trial )

Hope the The Observer do something similar for the 30 odd years he worked with them.

Good work Hugh, have a great retirement :thup:
