Sorry to hear this. I met him twice and he was very engaging both times. Seemed like a nice guy. Condolences to his family,  friends and colleagues.

Very sad news. Often overlooked when thinking back to the Jim Smith days, but as a few have mentioned, integral to those fantastic years and particularly important to attracting players over.

Had the chance to speak to him a few months ago and he told a great story of how he effectively was put in charge of convincing the overseas players partners that they should want to come and live in Derby. Jim would be swooning Eranio and co in one room, but he'd give Keith the orders to essentially chauffeur the wives around until the contract was signed. 

A sad loss for sport in Derbyshire as well, as he was still active with Mickleover. RIP Keith.
