Watched part two of a 6 part Nat geo series last night and they had footage of the second plane hitting I had never seen before
Other than the Taliban being a lot stronger has anything changed in 20 years

To those of my generation he was simply the best striker I've seen play in my lifetime. RIP Jimmy...

RIP Jimmy.

Not really old enough to see him play, but grew up on the Saint and Greaves show on a Saturday - great banter between the two of them.

RIP Jimmy

Great player, presenter and raconteur. Big slice of the 1960's just gone. RIP

RIP Jimmy

Who remembers when Saint & Greavsie went to New York and got Trump to do the draw for the Rumbelows cup? It's a funny old game.

RIP Jimmy, great man and right up there with Gerd Muller as an incredible goal scorer.

This 100%. He is a legend of football for me. He did the business of a striker and it was hard to dislike the man whatever team you supported.
One of the few non-QPR players whose poster was on my wall as a kid. Later in life he was a real lovable rogue on Saint & Greavsie.

Football has truly lost ones of its own. An icon for every striker no matter what era. RIP Jimmy

Some nice jazz and Jimmy scoring more goals in 3 minutes than several highly paid strikers have managed in their careers.

Probably the greatest finisher I've seen.

Here's Jimmy scoring three of England;s nine against Scotland in 1961, complete with Harry Enfield-style voiceover.

I was at that game as a six-year old.

RIP Jimmy.
