Gordon Sparks - Plymouth’s Ali Brownlee

[Yearbyred]

Both clubs lost their long time BBC radio commentators in recent years, Gordon Sparks who commentated on Plymouth for over 30 years, died just over a year ago from cancer.

Lovely man, he was a massive Cleveland Browns fan too, and I met him in London in 2018 and we chatted a long time about football.

Burnsy?
He wasn’t just a football commentator, he stood up for Hull and the whole “Humberside” region altogether.
A great down to earth bloke who doesn’t take any ****.
Radio Humberside is poorer without him and Andy Comfort (Ipswich Fan)
