Martin Peters RIP

Very sad to hear of the death of World Cup Winner Martin Peters. I never saw him play for West Ham, arriving on the North Bank just as WHU received top drinker Jimmy Greaves in part-exchange for Martin (Spurs got the best of the deal). But you could see just what a fine player Peters was in the 1970s away from Upton Park, winning the League Cup twice and the Uefa Cup with Spurs and then late on, still ghosting in behind defences with Norwich City. He'll always be remembered for scoring in the World Cup Final and his part in West Ham's Cup Winners' Cup win of 1965, but one game I wish I'd seen was the fantastic full volley he scored for West Ham at Upton Park (can't remember who it was against) and Brian Moore hollering "Oh magnificent!" He'll be missed.
