Remember Jacko saving one of his penalties back in the early 70's at Selhurst one night

Also a very capable businessman as after retiring as a footballer he set up FH Lee Paper Converters which was a highly successful manufacturer of toilet rolls that my company used to deal with

Francis Lee what a player - remember him particularly in the 1970 World Cup.

Strong bustling a real handful, very direct.

RIP

Remember it well . As I recall Hunter took a dim view of Lee diving in the box in attempt to win a pen in a previous game . This was in the days when nobody fell down unless they put down .

RIP Fanny

This spat lasted for weeks. Lee even offered to meet Hunter in any cobbled street in England to end their feud.

FL was called a cheat by a Leeds player, so that must have really stuck in his craw.

He saved the rebound too. It was the first Lee had missed for a long time but he got a lot of practice. We won 1-0.
