My all time hero from when I was a lad sat cross legged on the cinder track. Still got the scars in my knees 😉

Was watching these on YouTube recently, thought I'd share of people wanted to watch anything related to the great man

Still remember it breaking on Sky Sports News on a Friday night. They gave him fantastic, respectful coverage as you'd expect.
We all knew it would happen, but it didn't make it any easier when it did.
RIP Sir Tom 🎩

You're luckier than most on here Roy. Both to have seen Sir Tom play and North End in the top flight.

Don't I know it and I do feel very privileged. He was a fantastic player who was really good with both feet and a very good header of the ball too. The complete footballer.

I’m obviously out of touch, but why is Sir Tom referred to as “The Goat”? Doesn’t sound particularly respectful to me, but I’ve no idea what it stands for. 🥹

It is what the 'youth' use to describe Ronaldo and Messi.

The Greatest of all time.

'GOAT'

So nuts that one of the most revered footballers of all time comes from Preston.

RIP Sir Tom

A day to remember the Great Sir Tom. Im sure he would have been greatly disappointed at what passed off at Deepdale today, irrespective of who is right or wrong.

This is your life? didn’t Omar Sharif appear on that, he was a big fan of Finney?

Correct on both counts
