Proper footballer. The sort of bloke that you always want in your back four!

A sad loss.

"not a bad little club you have here"

Rest In Peace Larry! You will always be a Forest legend.

RIP Larry
from Coventry reserves to Forest legend - Miracle man

A few years ago a section of our fanbase were moaning about the 40th year anniversary celebrations of the miracle men that we've got to stop bleating on about our past etc. This is why. Because these heroes aren't going to be around forever. Larry Lloyd was way before my time but I remember listening to him as a kid co-commentate on Gem FM/Century and even as a kid you were struck by the man's personality. RIP Larry

 

[Wes' Organ]

Heartbreaking, first to go from my childhood team.

 

[Louth Red]

Very sad news. RIP

 

[Lukeyshep]

RIP Larry

The success was before my time but my old man used to talk non stop about him and rest of the European cup winners and i've read/seen so much about them so they feel more than just former players to me.

These are legends that we'll never see at our club again. RIP Larry.

He obviously had a significant and controversial input in later off-field events at NFFC, but that is for another day as he deserves enormous credit for his role in our rise from Division 2 obscurity to become twice Champions of Europe, something I was hugely privileged to witness, and for which I hope he is rightly acknowledged by the club on Saturday. RIP.

sad sad news …..RIP big lad

RIP Larry - the memories will live on (and your meme will continue to be used as a force for good on this forum).

 

[T Francis]

Very sad news. Fantastic memories of watching Larry and the rest of that magnificent team.
Might be a tear or two during the acknowledgment before the game on Saturday
R.I.P

Still nothing on the BBC

 

[Flaggers]

Farewell, Big "L"

Your place in the history of Nottingham Forest is secure for ever.

RIP

 

[IvorThirst]

RIP Larry. Great memories- the goal at Wembley in the Charity Shield v Ipswich in 78 and the 30 yard pile driver into the Trent End goal v York City in the FA Cup 1979.

 

[Dr Sheldon Cooper]

Sad news. Rest easy big Larry and thanks for everything. Honoured to have seen you and Kenny rule the defence.

 

[FLC]

RIP Larry, what a legend. Thanks for everything, but particularly that screamer against York City.

 

[Huxley]

Sad news indeed. A proper era defining player for us.

Rip big man.

 

[Strummer]

Oh no.

I spent an evening in his company last July, and he was as engaging and entertaining as ever.

Rest in peace, Larry. You were an absolute beast, and we loved you for that.

Keegan: „Hey Larry, you‘re not going to kick me, are you?“

Larry: „Oh no, Kev. But my mate Burnsy is going to absolutely muller you!“

 

[Alan Akbah]

Just heard on LBC that Larry Lloyd has died aged 75.

Sad news.

Legendary for his and Burns's intimidation of Keegan in the 1980 European Cup Final alone.

(Sorry to Mods for starting another thread - didn't see this one)

Garry Birtles on Burns and Lloyd.
