A great English centre-forward and a legend at Bolton. I met him once- lovely man.

RIP Nat.

Was driving home from a mate's when I heard the news prior to the Spurs game. Listening to Jimmy Armfield and Graham Taylor speak about him gave you an idea of what an awesome player he was...and a stint down the pits at the end of WWII to boot.

30 goals in 33 England Caps..only 4 men have more Engalnd goals.

And loyal to only one team....they don't make them like that anymore.

RIP
