Very sad news indeed Condolences to family and friends. Rest in peace, Sven.

It's very sad news, it made me wonder if he knew when he recently mentioned how he wanted people to remember him. I am a bit shocked by it still, and very saddened.

The times I spoke with Sven at Hart's Restaurant, they will be memories I cherish. I witnessed his kindness, not only asking to speak with me after he first encountered me. Yet more for his selfless acts, the kind of charity that I witnessed where he would support charities without fuss or wanting focus on him. He was a very nice person, who treated people with nothing but respect.

Rest in Peace, Sven.

very sad news, rest in peace sven.  

So very sad to hear this news 

RIP Sven.

The Pride of Nottingham has recently highlighted the remarkable legacy of Sven-Göran Eriksson, a football icon who left a lasting impact during his time at Notts County. Our article delves into Eriksson's transformative influence at Meadow Lane, celebrating his role in revitalising the club and bringing hope to its passionate fanbase. It's a must-read tribute to a man who will forever be remembered in football history.

 

It is very sad to hear that Sven has passed away. He was so brave when he learned about his illness. He tried to make the most of the time he had left. Rest in peace, Sven.

All deaths are sad, especially when you are in the middle of your own life. I am sorry to hear that he has passed away. I wish his family and friends comfort. I will remember him as a man who smiled and tried to help the club I love.

His legacy in football and life will be remembered. I think he was worried that people might remember him for what the media said about him. The man who came to Notts was humble and a true gentleman.

I am sure many people will remember him in the same way. Rest in peace.

Sven was one of our own. He could have demanded his 5m but he waived it. That unselfish act should always be remembered. May Sven rest in peace.

It's sad news that he has passed away. Rest in peace, Sven.

Sven has received many touching tributes from Notts and the world over. I have seen many from our own fans, and that is very touching. I send my condolences to his family and friends.

 

I hope he knew how much he meant to us Notts fans and the club. It's a shame we didn't invite him back. It would have been great to thank him. His arrival felt like when Tommy Lawton signed for Notts County. He left in a respectful way. Rest in peace, Sven.

 

Rest in peace, Sven-Goran Eriksson.

Rest in peace. It's very sad to hear that he has passed away. My thoughts go out to his family and friends. It must be a difficult time for them. It looked like Sven had accepted it and made the most of his remaining time. Bless him.

It's not good news. I felt sorry that he felt forced to do interviews while he was unwell. He gave others his time even during his remaining time. Rest in peace, Sven!

The BBC's article, plus a video on his time mostly as the England manager. It's a good watch, the article is a decent read too.

Sven-Goran Eriksson obituary: Ex-England manager who could and should have ended trophy drought

WWW.BBC.CO.UK

---

Sven-Goran Eriksson was engaging, courteous and a shrewd tactician - and he could, and should, have ended England's trophy drought.

 

Rest in peace, Sven. I am deeply saddened to hear that he has died. His diagnosis didn't seem that long ago.

He did a honourable job with Notts. His time flew by, and the season was very impactful. I am saddened by his passing. Rest in peace, Sven.

Rest in peace, Sven. I know it was expected, and I don't mean to talk out of turn. But it's still very sad news.

It's unfortunate, but somewhat expected news. His goodbye message to me gave the impression that things were not good and that Sven was expecting to pass away soon. It's still sad. Rest in peace.

It's sad news when you hear about someone passing away. Sven is no different. His time at Notts was remarkable. I am saddened too. My thoughts are with his family and friends.
