Very sad to hear that. One of my favourites, from a cracking team. Yet another who always gave 100%. RIP Mick, and condolences to his family.

Alf Wilkinson and Tony Cooke went to see Mick in the Nursing home yesterday and reported Mick to be "very ill" It is really sad to hear of his passing this morning. Mick was a larger than life character, a real, natural comedian and a brilliant full back.

Joe Walsh, Billy Kindon and now Mick - a hat trick of legends have now left us recently - may they all rest in peace.

This is very sad news - I knew Mick very well in the '80's, I was Jenny's best friend (his wife at the time) and spent many, many weekends at their house - all 3 of us drunk as a skunk and sleeping where we fell. Great memories. My thoughts are with hs family.

RIP Mick.

Very sad. Can still see Mick in the changing room. Teeth missing. Big grin.
Was always a player I looked up to.

Best Leigh fullback I ever saw... no disrespect to Niel Turley and Chris Johnson... a great player, a League Champion, and always to live in the hearts and minds of Leythers and RL fans, wherever they may be.

Without doubt the best FB in modern history of Leigh RL, very sad news.
