He was a real hero of mine growing up

Saw him play in a 1966 World Cup squad match against City at Carrow Rd and for 20 mins nobody could get the ball off him, absolutely brilliant. Then the excess weight, booze and lack of fitness cut in and off he went. So lucky to have seen him on the box in his prime.
