Just read elsewhere that Steve Plant, who did a lot of charity work and is known for They wore the shirt has sadly passed away after having a heart attack.

RIP, great guy.

I literally saw him on the Wolverhampton platform at the end of the Villa game on Saturday WTF....

His memorabilia and historic Wolves shirt collection was one, if not the best around. I’d seen videos of the museum he’d built at his house and it looked amazing. He was due to launch his next book at an event in the coming weeks.
