I've not been on rlfans for several years but felt the need to reply to this post.
I heard about Steve's passing from Cat a couple of weeks ago. Actually it was on cup final day, a couple of hours after we'd been beaten. It certainly put things into perspective.
I met Steve several times, usually at Magic, or at the Stoop. He was a genuinely nice guy. Shit hair, but a nice guy all the same

I can't comment, like some, about Steve's "condition" (I don't even though if that's the right bloody word) as I have no real experience. So I won't.
I hope Steve is now in peace. God (or whoever...) bless you my friend.
