@SwanseaCityNo12 Well at least Swansea are in the Premier League now. His mum thought he needed a passport to go play for Leeds. Phew, if Swansea had a player of his standard now, i would really fancy their chances next season. C.Ronaldo videos get millions of viewings, and John Charles only a few thousand; sad state of affairs
I show my u8s team books and pictures of john charles.....i want them to grow up with his values and sporting behaviour....THE role model for young men wanting to play football................i love my Burnley legends and history but john charles is a great hero of mine
Would have loved to have seen John Charles play. My Dad used to say he was the greatest British player (sorry everyone from Wales) that he had ever seen and always played football with skill.
A nice wee tribute to a giant among men. John Charles was a wee bit before my time..but I remember seeing film clips of him years ago. Wish he played for Celtic !!! Respect.

Great to see this - I did the sound on this doc. and met a few football legends - John seemed a lovely guy - very humble and genuine...
