Very sad news, he came across really well and as others have said just seemed to be a really nice bloke. I too remember tuning into the news to catch and record highlights of City games, see if I could see myself in the crowd or just catch up on games i wasn’t at. Clearly very good at what he did and you just knew who he was whenever you saw him or heard him on the radio.

So very sad to hear this news. I recall him really advocating City on Look North a lot but especially in the mid to late 80's. I used to wait with my fingers on the record button on my VHS player every Monday night as I knew City footage would be featured.

I was quite surprised when I saw a little article on him and found out he lived above the tailors next to Chapel green club on the corner of Thornton lane and Little Horton lane.1975citygent likes this. -

RIP Harry, he agreed to MC our staff conference at my old place a few years ago. As I was close to the marketing team in an open office you could here their discussions about him, seemed a very nice genuine, humble man. It’ll be strange not seeing him on our screens anymore, very sad seeing Amy announce it as well.

A thoroughly decent man. I did hear that he was looking thin on his final days, he was possibly keeping it quiet. Honourable to the end. RIP Harry.
