and not just the eleven. For me it was always a twelve/thirteen. When Shinji had worn himself out chasing everything after an hour Ulloa stepped in and held the ball up, not to mention weighing in with a few precious Goals. King also did his bit when called on as did many other squad members

For me there were three major factors that led to the great escape, and hence the momentum that carried us into the next season and ultimately the title. 1 Kaspers return from injury 2 Vardy finally found his shooting boots in the PL 3 WE SIGNED HUTH An absolute no nonsense old fashioned man mountain of a centre back. Legend. One of my abiding memories will always be when he got his shirt literally ripped from his back over his head (against Palace I think) and he just stood there in his vest, gave the ref a look and then just got on with it. When we got him from Stoke a lot of people just thought of him as some clogger but he already had two PL winners medals so he was no slouch and the experience he brought to us helped to steady the ship and the rest is history. We should give him some sort of coaching role. He would be a great motivator I am sure and some of our young defenders would certainly benefit from his Nounce.

There is a couple of things wrong with statement. There is no "of" about it they were the best ever. The second is England, should be the world.

Fantastic article. being the gent he was he didn't actually say that he thought he had been nobbled in Mexico but I think the inference is there (I was the only one). There were all sorts of dirty tricks going on at that world cup. They tried to fit Bobby Moore up on a ridiculous theft charge (why would the captain of the England world cup team even want to steal a necklace) and then the food poisoning incident.

I seem to remember a recent TV documentary where Nobby Stiles son said he is in an old folks home suffering with dementia but not 100% on that.

As a youngster I saw him play at filbert street a few times. Unfortunately never in a city shirt as he had already moved on to Stoke before I was old enough to go to my first match. The word legend is often overused these days but in his case it is most apt. Condolences to his family. As many have already stated I hope club, and knowing they operate I am sure they will, do something to mark our only world cup winners passing at the next home game.

Sad news indeed.

Ok so I am sure this has been done many times before but I am new on here so I here are my thoughts on what would be possibly our all time best team Shilton Mauchlen McLintock Maguire Nish Kante Mahrez Weller Izzet Worthington Lineker Subs (perm from) Banks Whitworth Walsh Macallister Glover D. Gibson Vardy Rowley There are others that I would definitely have in the squad too such as Fern, Rodrigez, Cross, Sjoberg, Elliot, Lennon, Mancini etc
