RIP Jack I remember when I was a kid he lived down back of Worsbrough res he used to go in red lion a lot I was sat outside one summer with my mam and dad I had a little push scooter and he pretended to pinch it happy memories RIP big man
RIP always liked him even when he went to Wednesday. I can give him no bigger compliment than that. Tight lines old lad
Had a walk round there a bit back & said to the Mrs how I’d found these really nice houses I didn’t no existed & she told me that Jack Charlton used to live there & how friendly he was
I bumped into big Jack and his wife on Filey sea front. My dad was in a coma dying in Scarboro hospital at the time. I was telling him about my dad and how he idolized him and his brother. He stood talking with us for ages. Funny point was, he said could I ask the miners from worsboro could he have his fridge back that he lent the women against pit closures back in 1984 . Top bloke Rip big Jack .
