“Kev had some great stories and Sir Alex [Ferguson], the boss, used to tell great stories about him turning up in all kinds of places where there weren’t disabled sections. He’d end up talking to Kev in the middle of games! But Kev was 66 and that’s a hell of an innings for somebody with brittle bone disease.

 

“Everybody knew ‘Little Kev’ – that’s how he was always known. He was incredible. Everybody just accepted him as one of the lads. United was his life, you know? Following them around was what kept him going. That was his driving force. 

 

“And it’s not just him. For a lot of disabled people, it’s all they have in their life. That’s why it’s so important that United have done what they have done over the years for our disabled fans. You won’t find a club anywhere in the world that does more and they really have treated us well. There are so many disabled people who their whole life is wrapped around United. Kev spent his whole life doing that.”

 

The thoughts of everyone at Manchester United are with Kevin’s family and loved ones at this time, especially his many friends within our match-going fanbase.
