Crashed and burned. Found it somewhere else so serves me right for not verifying it myself.

Hope Ringo doesn't see this.

1966 World Cup Golden Boot Winner - Harry Kane. You do the math.

If this gets posted 1966 times on here then maybe it is coming home.

Manchester City won the old second division, it doesn't specifically mention which league

Yes, but ask anyone who won the league this year, no one is saying Wolves - apart from maybe Wolves fans.

Everton won the FA Cup in 1966. It's nailed on

Actually, Wolves did win the league this year in a way that City certainly didn't in '66.

Last time we won a penalty shoot out in a major tournement we reached the semi's, went 1-0 up in first 5 mins, drew 1-1 and lost on penaltys.... Is our manager allowed to take one?

Another coincidence 1990 England lose a World Cup semi-final,4 months later Margaret Thatcher faces a leadership challenge,and ultimately stands down,i'd be worried if my name was Theresa May.

I think Theresa May was already worried.
