A quarter of a century has passed since Trevor Sinclair sent the ball across the Upton Park pitch and Paolo Di Canio did the rest.
Not bad, not bad at all.
Utterly devastated.
EJ has left us.
Formula One won’t see the likes of Eddie ever again where a guy with a love for racing can hustle his way into the sport and end up winning races.
More important than race wins though, he won hearts. I will never forget how his face would always light up whenever he saw a Jordan GP jacket, flag or cap… as we traveled the world together years after the team had been sold.
His greatest achievements were Mikki, Zoe, Kyle and Zak. His incredible 4 kids who share his spirit. His wife Marie is one of the strongest, most wonderful women I have ever met.
The 4 years we spent together hosting F1 on the BBC were greatest of my career. Wing-walking, scooter riding, car driving madness that I know he loved deeply.
His incredible spirit and love of life lives on in me, and my children who were lucky enough to meet him and hear all about him.
Eddie lit up a room whenever he entered it. That is a lesson for us all - be the light in the room.
I was lucky enough to share one, final, cherished meal with him and his boys a few months ago. It was special. We talked about me doing one last interview with him. Sadly that will never happen.
As I left his departing words were ‘I love you brother’.
I love you. Brother.
One of the 3 Amigos is gone. The world seems a little less bright this morning.
Farewell friend. Play the spoons up there for me ❤️❤️❤️
