Re: RIP Nat Lofthouse
Very sad news.
His goal record speaks for itself. 30 goals in 33 internationals. 255 goals in 452 league games.
He was brought up in the Bolton area and was a one club man, Bolton Wanderers for his entire career.
Heard him interviewed on the tele a few times and he always came across as a very modest, self-effacing bloke, playing down his own achievements, proud of his club and the area he was from.
RIP Nat, a true football legend.

Mind you, that was never a goal in the 1958 Cup Final, Harry Gregg was mugged!
