Great to see Alastair in the Queens birthday honours list. A true servant of rugby and all round good guy. I know some of my regular readers were at Uni with him and can vouch for that. Congratulations!

/ 5 July, 2009Ali is quite embarrassed about it all. Wonderful servant to rugby and cricket as an elite player, supporter and journo.
A lovely fella, who is bearing his illness with great bravery and pragmatism.
Best scrum half playing at full back I ever played with ! And always happy memories of his cover drives at Fenners.
One of the last true Corinthian sportsmen
