RIP GB 

[st albans fox]

So sad for a club and national legend to pass on - we should have an annual pre season friendly against chesterfield in his memory. 

[worthosoriginals]

sad to hear this, rest in peace Gordon.

[dmayne7]

Thoughts to his friends and family. He used to be one of the few landmarks I could use when talking about Leicester; arguably the greatest keeper that ever lived (probably behind Yashin)

[Wymsey]

Had been unwell for some time, and had been house-bound mostly since the the latter stages of last year.

Family knew him and his wife well (30+-year association).

Used to be a regular around the Trentham area of Stoke, where he resided, but had not been seen in public for quite a while.

He was a real gentleman, with his honesty and general kindness.

Very sad - RIP..

True legend, gentleman and a perfect role model. 

Rest easy Sir 

[GloverFox]

Deep condolences to his family, he will be remembered as one of the greats of English and World football. Thank you Gordon, I had the privilege of watching you when I was a youngster.

Rest in Peace.

[Ric Flair]

Very sad to hear this saw him play many times and was so proud for LCFC when he was a key part of England's World Cup win.

 

RIP Gordon.

[lgfualol]

Rip. What a legend.

[foxy boxing]

Sad news. he was the best goalkeeper of his generation. the save from Pele will never be forgotton.

[Crinklyfox]

The term legend is overused.  For Gordon Banks it's absolutely appropriate.  For both City and England.

[StriderHiryu]

Sad news, brilliant person who was one of the best goal keepers of all time.

[Hollyfox]

So sad for him and his family. 

Football has lost one of its all time best

[Babylon]

Legend... how he wasn't a Sir is a total disgrace in the day and age they are handed out like confetti.

[HighPeakFox]

Sad news indeed. 

[Foxes1]

One of the best goalkeepers I ever saw play for Leicester

[Remember Kember]

A very sad day indeed RIP in Gordon.

 

Too young to remember him play at Leicester but saw him play for Stoke and England the best Goalkeeper ever. The best tribute I can pay is when I played football in the garden with my son who is only 17 now and never saw him play the only Goalkeeper he wanted to be was Gordon Banks! He will be remembered for ever.
