A footballing legend, once known as 'The Lion of Vienna', for his great performance for England against Austria. Our sympathy to his family, and also Bolton Wanderers, who will miss him greatly.
He helped Brentford FC as well, by being part of the presentation team that helped launch Lifeline at the Civic Centre all those years ago. He made a terrific speech that night.
RIP Nat Lofthouse, a giant of a man, a great centre-forward and a true gentleman.
