Rip Kevin beattie

[bobbo]

Too young. Very sad great player.

[Lighthouse]

Only 64 I think. Comes from the age when we all knew the 1-11 of most sides. A tough character and sad to see him leave the field too early. Sympathy to friends and family and fans.

Was he only that age,RIO kevin.

[Fulham 442]

Heart attack apparently.  Very sad. RIP.

What a player Kevin was. Far too young. RIP.

[Fernhurst]

Rest In Peace Kevin.
Deepest condolences to family.

Far too young.

A lot of players who played with him reckon he was phenomenal. Would've gone down as one of the great defenders if not for injury

[Woolly Mammoth]

Magnificent and a phenomenal player and character and leader. He could have been one of England's greats if it hadn't been for injuries which inevitably shortened his career.
I remember in 1975 when England crushed Scotland to pulp 5 1, he scored his first goal for England.
It was the late Alan Balls last game. They made him Captain.
Micky Channon, Gerry Francis, Colin Bell and Kevin Keegan all played in that game. 
Kevin Beatie scored in that 5 1 demolition.

[RaySmith]

Top, top player, real strong character, a leader and inspiration.

Such a shame to go so young.
RIP

[Barrett487]

I liked Beattie as a player
