Gordon Banks has died

[Summer Bee]

RIP

 

[HABA87]

53 years since we won the World Cup, I'm surprised the majority of the squad is still with us.

Bloke talking about the Pele save also referred to Monty’s save v Dirty Leeds in same class.

 

[Rob the Ref]

It’s weird actually he’s probably better remembered for 70 than 66 and that save from Pele.

Outstanding in both.
If he hadn’t have been ill against the Germans we had a real chance to retain the trophy

 

[janey]

Just never thought of him as being 81 for some reason. Sad news

[Tin Soldier]

Old fashioned decent footballer and gentleman. Represented his country with honour backed up with brilliance as a keeper. RIP Mr Gordon Banks

 

[Paddy O'Dors]

He was treat quite shabbily by a few clubs, Leicester and Telford for two. Poor bloke ended up selling his WC winners medal and cap to get by.

RIP Gordon.
