The Golden Boys of '66 - The England 1966 World Cup Squad: (Where They Came From & Where They Went) Kindle Edition

by David Lee (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
3.4 3.4 out of 5 stars 9 ratings
See all formats and editions
These are the tales of where the England World Cup winners - those monoliths of modern life - came from, what they individually achieved in 1966, and what worlds they went on to conquer afterwards.
For every famous story like:

• Geoff Hurst’s disputed hat-trick
• Bobby Charlton’s humdinger goal
• Nobby Stiles’ celebration dancing

…there’s also a more bizarre or obscure tale like:

• Who almost didn't play in the Final after contracting tonsillitis?
• Who turned down Ramsey’s call-up to run away with a beauty-queen?
• Who was involved in the putting-shorts-on-last game?
• Which player had won the Household Cavalry Cup?
• Which squad-member later owned Liverpool’s famous Cavern Club?
• Which player’s actions in the 1960s caused the recent Brexit vote?
• Was Nobby Stiles the last player to see the real Jules Rimet Trophy??

All these and many more stories on the 40 (or so) England squad players that changed our little world forever.

From the author of "Triffic!" and "You Could’ner Make It Up!"
