Death of Rebecca Wilson

It was sad this morning to hear of the death of renowned sports journalist Rebecca Wilson at the young age of 54 after a battle with breast cancer.

Rebecca was a robust and fearless journalist with a deep knowledge of sport. She was always prepared to express her opinion, often in a very out- there manner and to rail against anything she saw as an injustice in sport. I always enjoyed reading Rebecca's commentaries or listening to her on Sky where she often appeared.

Rebecca was also a trailblazer for women in her field of sports journalism. She will be sadly missed.
