And he was indeed a genuine legend. Amazing that only 1100 turned up to see him.The legendary Frank Worthington bagging a brace at Plainmoor.
I doubt the top flight players these days will be scratching around in the 4th tier at the end of their careers.
What a player he was.Saw him a few times over his illustrious career.
Recently passed away with Alzheimer’s
It's a shame that top flight players no longer drop down the leagues. I appreciate that they no longer need to for financial reasons anymore, but you might have thought that the love of the game would be sufficient for many of them to continue.
There were some fantastic obituary stories about Frank; there is no way that modern day footballers could ever hope to replicate his magical antics either on or off the pitch. I believe his autobiography was titled: one bonk or two.
