Another World Cup hero dies - silverbaggie - 28-09-2021
Being reported that Roger Hunt who played in all of England's 1966 World Cup games has died at the age of 83.
Just a few days after Jimmy Greaves; I wonder just how many of that famous squad are still with us.
R.I.P Roger. My sincere condolences to your family.

Sad stuff.
Even heroes are not immortal are they?
Only remember Roger Hunt Post 66 but always think of him as very quiet and underrated as a player.
A quick Google says only 3 of that great team are still with us - George Cohen, Bobby Charlton and Geoff Hurst
