People thought he was just a ball winner but Nobby could play as well as anyone. Ramsey led a round of applause for him in the dressing room for his performance against Eusebio in the semi against Portugal and backed him against the FA suits who wanted him dropped for a mistimed tackle in the France game.

Sad to see that his retirement was not as fulfilling as his playing career, he was short of cash and of course had Alzheimer’s. Another piece of history gone. RIP.

RIP Nobby. Achieved more than the vast majority of today’s outrageously paid players will ever do.

“Ah! Nobby Stee-les. Bobby Charrlton.”


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
