Sadly passed away today, underrated player in the World cup winning team.
Alf said he was always one of the first names on the team sheet.
RIP Nobby |  |

He was guest speaker at a function in Blancos, Port Talbot, a number of years ago. Considering his achievements on the football field he seemed quite a modest, friendly man. |  | | |

Great player.
I remember watching an interview with Alf ramsay. The interviewer asked him: "How heavy is Nobby Stiles?". Alf's reply was "Oh, about ten and a half stone. When he tackles, ten and a half tons". Proper old fashioned pro. | | | |

One of the games early holding midfielders, and a great "man marker"
Nobby was manager of Preston when we clinched promotion there in May 1981, and took survival out of their hands.
A few days later they won at Derby, but Cardiff drew against West Ham and stayed up. Preston were relegated and Nobby was sacked.
RIP Nobby |  |
| Everyday above ground ... Is a good day! 😎 |

RIP Nobby, hard to believe for people of my generation that only 4 of the World Cup winning team are still alive, Charlton, Hurst, Hunt and Cohen. |  |
| Never knew getting old would happen so quick! |
