R.I.P Dickie Davies

Dickie Davies, with that famous white blade through his mane like Shergar, was the face of ITV sport in an age before the industry diversified into the landscape we know today.

He died on Sunday, aged 94. His death was announced by another now-veteran of those ITV years, the highly regarded Jim Rosenthal, then a junior to the front-of-house star.

Speaking on behalf of the Davies family, Rosenthal reported: 'With huge sadness, we announce Dickie Davies passed away this morning.
