awful awful news,an absolute star of the coms game,spent many an hour listening to his great coms(and plenty spent wishing he was on the mic whilst some m1nge called mine home in front only to find it was actually 3rd when the results came through)

God bless him and his family.

Diesel if you know of any family donation requests can you pls post them up,thanks.

Seriously is there any better than Ozzie Osman at commentating on greyhound racing ?

I know there was a fellah up at Sunderland who could push him close

.... but word for word, phrase for phrase, knowledge and understanding he's well clear imho"



"Oi toi"

greyhound racing has lost one of its best ....r i p Sad

Just seen this......what a terrible shame and what really sad news......ozzie was no age to read of his passing.....I remember having a laugh with him at crayford on a monday night just before he moved up north......he was like all of us at the time...struggling...juggling but with a passion for watching and backing greyhounds.....a really nice fella and I am sure he will be missed by family and friends......I remember that commentary wonders....the bags racing was certainly more fun with people like ozzie on the mic.....RIP Oz...too soon my friend too soon.....
