Nobby Stiles RIP

[urban fox]

Not sure if this the right place for this but heard the sad news today that England World Cup winner Nobby Stiles has passed away. A true icon of the game. Will never forget that toothless smiles and the story that Norman Hunter (also recently passed) related when an opposing player threatened to knock his teeth out. His reply was “you’ll have a job mate cost they are in a tissue in my pocket”

sadly he has spent the last few years in a care home suffering dementia but will bee remembered fondly. The class of ‘66 are now getting thinner.

Nobby’s dance with the World Cup will forever be one of the most iconic images in English sport. Another of the true legends of the game.

RIP Nobby
