Nat Lofthouse - A Tribute

Post by TKIZ! » Tue Jan 18, 2011 10:20 pm

Currently on Sky Sports 2. Dickie Davies talking with the Big fella from back in 1998. I'm holding back the tears. It's tear jerking stuff
Pfffft.

Legend, simple.

"Why change clubs?"

"I played for England whilst playing for Bolton", "I won the FA Cup with Bolton, I was on the same money as anywhere else and we have the best fans in the world"

i started leaking as soon as i heard his voice. but managed to pull myself together and had a good laugh.
i loved how he kept saying how lucky he was.

why play for another team? - why support another team i say.

Perfectly sums up the interview, he came across as a genuinely nice bloke happy with his lot in life. Entertaining and a great insight into how the game was back then, worth catching if you have the chance.
