Billy Bingham

Good innings.Had a decent career at Sunderland and Everton. Played in 1958 WC in Sweden.Would probably be in the all time Northern Ireland XI.RIP.
 
Think he played for Luton against us in the FA Cup 6th round in the 50’s unless I’m dreaming
We drew at Bloomfield Rd and lost the replay, he was a tricky winger
 
Thoughts with his family. A great player and the couple of times I met him seemed a genuine guy.
Today is not the time to ask of his involvement with that family - save to say he didn't partake in the Stuart Hall & William Roche clique.
 
Done well getting Norn Iron to the 82 & 86 world cup finals!
Think they will be doing a minute silence on Sundays nation league game .v. Cyprus
 
RIP Billy and finally I’ve learned where that sponsorship arrangement came from. Always seemed bizarre but now it makes sense.
 
Blackpool fans obsession with a jewellers, really you have to bring that up time and again when we are talking about a good man dying!
