Jack Charlton passed

Just seen that on Sky. Sad news, I think he had been in poor health for a while. Leeds have lot a few of their legends recently
 
Came across as a player's manager, someone you'd want to play for and would give 100 per cent for. Would Souness have made it without his influence?; I think I read something about the influence he had on him; I'm also certain he had an influence on Gascoigne in terms of fitness and attitude.
 
The other area of Jack Charlton, could you imagine in today’s football, and with paper weight players going down when a fellow Pro blows on him, Jackie would have been out the game at twenty for a Mans Tackle. Back to the days when players, took the rough with the smooth and Refs allowed it.
