A very eloquent and talented gentleman. Will be sorely missed. Rest in peace (from all Liverpool supporters - YNWA)

I'm watching this in disbelief. It's almost a year now, and I still can't believe he's left us. Cyrille was a good friend, and a truly wonderful man. It's so sad to think that I can't see or speak to him anymore. RIP Big C, until we meet again!

I can safely say as a cov fan, we all loved that man. He did so well for us, and other clubs. All we have is love and respect. What a man on and off the pitch. Sorely missed. Love that man.

I'm white. My partner is Jamaican. Black white it don t matter to me. I'm not racist. I loved watching Albion. With cyrill, Laurie, Brendan, and bomber . Brilliant side of the late 70s. I don't think will ever be repeated. Well not in my life time. Rip cyrille you were the greatest .

never mind your one in Bristol, this man should have a statue put up outside Wembley! Seems like a incredibly genuine bloke.

Ed Ra RAcists didn't break his heart He was stronger that them. He was more than them. He stood up to the crap. Cyrill, Laurie, Brendan brilliant players. Cyrill I know you cannot read this bless you. But when I was a lad you were my hero. And always will be.

His voice sounds exactly like Idris Elba. He should play him in a biopic.

Horatio Huskisson Definitely. The movie should simply be called "Cyrille".

Interesting how the 3 Degrees nickname came about, don't think i'd ever heard that before. These lads who paved the way are true legends.

I wonder what people who shouted racist invective at Mr Regis and others in those stadiums at the time think if they watch this sort of clip? Have they genuinely been harbouring hatred all these years? What's it got them? Are they richer? Difficult question cos they would never answer it, I suppose. Would be interesting to know though.

Dominik Young yep. I was home and away with leeds in the 80s and saw what he went through. What he says about the srreets is correct. Only in the stadiums. We tried to sign him in 84 to join terry connor. We would have been the first team with a dual black strike force. Terry connor was loved by us and how he put up with what was going on around him speaks volumes for the man.

Cyrille re-writing history here. I followed Aston Villa from 1968, aged 10 years,..it was very rare to see a black player in any division, they were seen as a novelty well into the 1970's. I totally disagree with this prejudiced narrative about monkey chants, hooting sounds or throwing bananas (apart from Chelsea)...it simply never happened. If it did, it was a few individuals...NOTY entire crowds....or whole stadiums. I well remember our fierce battles with local rivals West Brom but I repeat and re-emphasise there were no chants or bananas from Aston Villa fans. The only colour we cared about was claret and blue. Take a look at Villa v Spurs, 1981 on YT and you will see black striker Garth Crooks receive the ball up front several times....absolutely no hooting, no racism or bananas thrown. THAT is exactly how I remember league matches from 1968 onward. mo
