@EastStandUpper Horrible news about Norman Hunter... never mind his career, he’s as warm and genuine a bloke as you could wish to meet. Come on, Norman, tackle this one like it’s a fancy dan forward in the spring of 1969.

@biteyerlegs70 Come on Norman. Fight this like you fought for us every week. We are all with you.

@deanobri1968 Thoughts and prayers this morning for Norman Hunter and his family, true Leeds United legend and wonderful man. Get well quickly Norman.

@jon_newsome My thoughts and prayers with Norman and his family... such a wonderful man. Please get through this.

@Andrewt09At Wishing Norman Hunter all the best at this time. I sat with him a few years ago at a dinner and he was great company. Best Wishes.

@RyanLUFC91 All the best to you Norman, you showed plenty of fighting spirit on the pitch so I'm sure you'll show this virus it's picked on the wrong man here.

@penderel Hoping that Norman makes a full recovery. He is an elder statesman of the Leeds family. We care for our family. Look after one another, particularly those at greater risk and let's hope as many as possible are still here at the end of the outbreak.

@DarrellClose4 Here's wishing a speedy recovery for Norman Hunter. One of my all time football heroes at Leeds United.

@clunn1989 Keep fighting, Norman. You’ve got every single Leeds fan wishing you back to good health. We love you.

@Johnleeds77 You were a fighter on the pitch and you're a fighter now. We are all praying for you and your family

@markcf83 Now it's set its sights on the legendary Leeds defender Norman Hunter. He'll bite its legs off. Get well soon Norman.

@jamesjamesbrown I hope the great Norman Hunter is okay. For those of us who grew up with the Don Revie side for heroes these men seemed like Gods. I still think of them like that.
