I doubt it, he gave up years ago.

Ironic that Spurs & Chelsea play today. Hopefully a decent tribute will be arranged for both sets of fans.

Probably one of the best (if not the best) English goal scorers.

And not too shabby behind the wheel either, many people forget that he co-drove one of the works Ford Escort's (with Tony Fall) in the London-Mexico World Cup Rally in 1970.
He even owed his an ex-works rally Escort RS a few years later in the early 70's.
