A World Cup winner with England along with his brother Bobby, the Leeds hard man Jack Charlton has passed away at 85. He led Ireland through an amazing adventure as coach, punching above their weight. Ireland had a couple of notable players, like Liverpool man Ronnie Whelan, but his Ireland team were genuine outsiders who habitually went to major finals and caused upsets. He was a great player, great coach, just a class act and absolute giant of the game.
