Awful news. My gran passed from MND, it's a bsatard of a disease.
I remember bumping into Rob in Philadelphia airport of all places, can't remember the year but around 2007/8ish maybe? He was sitting on the floor near the boarding gate waiting for the same flight as me back to Manchester. I think he was with his Mrs and at the back of my mind he may have been to Vegas.
Anyway, I worked for the airline in question at the time and asked the gate staff and crew if there were any business class seats left for a GB RL player. Tried to explain who he was but they didn't really 'get it', and I'm not sure there were any seats left anyway. Either way I couldn't get him an upgrade [i[size=85(if you've ever tried to get a humane response out of Philly or indeed NYC airport staff you'll understand)[/size[/i. Didn't want to bother him so he never knew.
