I wrote this last night and was going to start a thread at midnight tonight myself. It doesn't matter who starts the thread only that we pay our respects. I was going to ask people to post their memories of him.

I was In the Nelson in Didsbury, it was a warm evening, I’d been playing football and just bought a pint to quench my thirst, my phone rang, it was my wife, I went outside to take the call. She asked me if I had been watching the football. “No” I replied “I’ve just come back from 5 aside”.

She knew how much he meant and how hurt I would be, I could hear her holding back the tears in her voice as she told me that Foey had died.

I sat down on the steps of the Nelly and I couldn’t hold the tears back from my eyes. I am struggling with that problem now while I write my memory of that night.

It is seven years ago today sadly, that Marc Vivien Foe passed away and that Manchester City and the football world lost a shining light.

A lion never dies – it sleeps

Patrice Etoundi Mballa wrote in the Cameroon Tribune at the time:

“We should not forget that Marc-Vivien Foe’s was a tremendous destiny. To die on the football field, having minutes earlier sung the national anthem of his nation and guided his teammates into the final of a major competition…few are granted the chance to end their earthly voyage in such beauty. Few have deserved such reverence and admiration from their homeland".

Sleep in peace Marc

cant believe its been 7 years!!! was such a sad day when marc passed and was a horrible sight seeing him there on the pitch.would have been more of a legend if all would have been well with him and as many have said was a true warrior.my thoughts are with his family and friends today and where ever marc is i hope hes happy and having a kick around with other top players who have sadly passed.
