Mitchell and other friends insist that Moore was not in any sense greedy. If anything his great failing was not being able to say no. Moore's fame also worked against him when things went awry, says Mitchell. 'Because of his high profile, whenever Bobby was involved - even just as a shareholder - it attracted a lot of attention,' he says. 'But that doesn't necessarily reflect on how good he was as a businessman. Because the business might not have done as well as he would have expected - or it failed - it doesn't mean to say that he was responsible for it.'

What was Bobby Moore’s record at West Ham?

Amid the coarsening of spirit that has been manifest in this country over the past couple of decades, there is a measure of reassurance in finding so much of the nation so deeply affected by the death of Bobby Moore. It is impossible to doubt the spontaneity of grief felt by millions whose intimacy with the man was no greater than could be developed through watching him from the terraces of a football ground or on a television screen. Wherever people gathered on Wednesday, there was a pervasive sense of loss, an unforced emotion that suggested many had been taken unawares by the depth of their feelings. Four years later, as England prepared to defend the World Cup in Mexico with warm-up games in South America, he was detained in Colombia following a seedy attempt by a jewellery store situated in the team's Bogota hotel to frame him for the theft of an emerald bracelet.

England 4, West Germany 2 (aet), on a midsummer's day of rich green grass and a gilded sunlight (and one shower around half-time, no?) in 1966. And England wore red – not the scarlet red, the garish huntin' pink of Llanelli or Wales, but the deeper, more satisfying red of expensive strawberry jam. The "aet" bit, didn't it, tied up the dramatic unities with a voluptuous curtain-call? If there had not been extra time, it would have been memorable and pretty good alright, but not that memorable, not that pretty resplendently, memorably good. East End to NC end: The final playing days of West Ham legend Bobby Moore". WRALSportsFan.com. 11 July 2016 . Retrieved 12 July 2016. He became manager of Southend United in 1984. In his first full season, 1984–85, Southend narrowly avoided having to apply for re-election to the Football League amid severe financial difficulties. However, the side was gradually rebuilt and in the 1985–86 season Southend started well and were in the promotion race until the new year before eventually finishing 9th. His successor, David Webb built upon those foundations to win promotion the following year. Moore agreed to serve on the board of the club and held this role until his death. [40] Moore was Sports Editor of the Sunday Sport from 1986-1990 [41] and then joined London radio station Capital Gold as a football analyst and commentator in 1990, a position he held until shortly before his death. [42] Right before the launch of NBA Inside Stuff in 1990, Rashad, who was 40 years old at the time, signed a two-day contract with the Philadelphia 76ers. [25] As the show wanted to use Rashad playing in the NBA as a promotion, he was allowed to practice with the team and play in an NBA preseason game against the Minnesota Timberwolves the next day. Rashad was known for his athleticism, as evidenced by him playing multiple offensive positions in his football career. He became a multi-sport athlete, albeit 8 years after his retirement from pro sports. It was the first preseason game ever to be played at the newly built Target Center and was in front of a crowd of 18,296. Many fans came to the game to support Rashad because of his career as a Viking. [25] They separated in 1984, [91] and divorced in 1986. [92] A relationship developed with Stephanie Parlane (eight years his junior)—they married on 4 December 1991 but Moore died on 24 February 1993, 14 + 1⁄ 2 months later. [93]Behind the dapper magnetism and golden smile, there was also a streetwise, almost roguish charm about Moore, not least in his energy conservation. He always preferred the ball at his feet to the drudgery of long-distance fitness drills, and Redknapp recalled one glorious pre-season ruse. In 2007, Rashad married his fourth wife, Sale Johnson. (She had divorced from Woody Johnson, Johnson & Johnson billionaire heir and New York Jets owner). She brought three daughters to the marriage Casey Johnson (1977–2010), Jamie Johnson (b. 1982), [30] and Daisy Johnson (b. 1987). After Casey died, the couple adopted her daughter (Sale Johnson's granddaughter), Ava-Monroe Johnson (born August 14, 2006). Rashad and Johnson divorced in 2013.

This season, 138 Premiership matches will be broadcast live (as well as countless European and FA Cup matches), providing punditry opportunities for numerous old pros; in the pre-Sky days of 1983, say, just 10 were shown.

How did Bobby Moore die?

Moore's first wife, Tina, who now lives in Florida, still expresses disbelief that no club came in with a managerial or coaching offer. 'How could anyone who had Bobby's knowledge and expertise be overlooked in that way?' she asks. 'Kids would have looked up to him and learnt things just by his presence. I can just never ever see to this day why it didn't happen.' Moore had such an aura about him that even the great Hammers warrior Billy Bonds was in awe of his captain when he first joined the club from Charlton in 1967 - almost scared to talk to the legend who had lifted the Jules Rimet Trophy 10 months earlier. When sporting greats pass on these days, colourful memorials of flowers, scarves, shirts and flags are a rite of passage, but when Moore died in 1993, the tributes outside Upton Park were arguably the first on such an expansive scale.
