Sad, RIP Nobby.
My late father's favourite player.
Who can ever forget the Wembley jig of 66.

True legend. Made me a very proud and happy 13 year old when we won the World Cup. RIP Nobby.

Very sad, that leaves 4 now.
Do you think they be able to forgo taking the knee this weekend to actually mark his passing with a meaningful show of respect?

Everybody will give Nobby the show of respect that he deserves.
Taking the knee is a separate issue, and will in no way detract from the commemoration of a great player.
You just can't help yourself, can you?

Hard as nails, but could play.
Ferguson asked Sir Alf Ramsey about his '66 team.
Ramsey reckoned that he had 5 world class players in the side. Nobby was one of them.

One of my favourite memories of that day, dancing around with his toothless grin.
'66 team will always be legends in this country. RIP Nobby.

Not a great start to the weekend, as another World Cup winner departs.
RIP

Can't keep up with all these famous people dying. A terrible week. 
Another of the '66 team goes. Always remembered for great cockney rhyming slang. "How are your Nobby's at the moment?" "Not bad since my doc burst 'em".

RIP legend.
Sad to see this thread so low down on the front page.
Another one of the great eleven has passed. Tears.
And 25 years since '30 years of hurt'. Will we ever recapture such a moment again (in my lifetime). Hope triumphs expectation.
