Sad news. RIP JC
Read 2 great things today.
“ I’m not great at football but I know how to stop others from being so.”
And whenever drinking in Ireland he’d always pay his bar tab by cheque knowing that the landlord would usually frame it rather than ban it.
I think he was a very modest guy watching some old clips he wasn’t just a stopper he was very good at bringing the ball forwards and bagged more goals than your average centre half normally does and yet he didn’t make his England debut I think until he was almost 30 - great player in his day
His autobiography is a great read.
A greatly respected man, player, Manager. RIP big man you've earned your rest.
Another of the great Leeds side to pass on in the last few weeks. I bet Billy's got them all sat around the table, with the big Don dealing the cards.
Rough & ready ask David Bentley. I was there cup game at Millmoor. Effective though Jackie Charlton's no-nonsense defensive approach. R I P
Great man
Great player
Great manager
Overall he did more than his brother Bobby but he gets an OBE and Bobby gets a knighthood
Weird system in a weird world
RIP Big Jack
