Jimmy Greaves

[Sir Henry]

Get well soon. I really hope he gets to see his induction.

 

[Blackrat1299]

My prayers and thoughts are with Jimmy and his family.

 

[Gaz_Gammon]

No one better has ever worn the Spurs shirt. A true legend, goalscorer and gentleman off the pitch.


God bless for a speedy recovery.

 

[Davo99]

Get well soon Jimmy. You can do this.

Why on Earth has someone given this a WTF rating?

Really hoping you recover Jimmy, get well soon bud.

 

[riggi]

Get well soon.

 

[EastLondonYid]

''Every club i played for had my loyalty...only Spurs had my love'' His words...

Get well Jim...

The best striker this club has ever seen without question.

 

[Kennington]

Get well soon. I really hope he gets to see his induction.

He doesn't need an induction.

He is and has been for many years a legend.

 

[mil1lion]

Get to well soon Jimmy!

One of a handful who deserve a statue outside the new Stadium

@PA_dugout: Greaves was due to be inducted into the @SpursOfficial Hall of Fame on May 13 and, of course, scored 44 goals in 57 games for England.[/QUOTE]
Very sad about this. I'm too young to remember his playing days but I used to love watching Saint and Greavsie. What a player he was and incredible to think that a player of his ability didn't get to play in the world cup final. I don't think that we could afford to pass up on talent like that these days.

 

[absolute bobbins]

Just heard the news from my Dad, sounded like he was holding back the tears

 

[The Apprentice]

Horrible news.

Why hasn't he been inducted yet? Have you seen some of the inductees so far?

 

[TheBlueRooster]

Horrible news.

Why hasn't he been inducted yet? Have you seen some of the inductees so far?

His choice, I believe he's been approached several times but has declined each time.

 

[DaSpurs]

Anyone heard/seen/read an update anywhere? Honestly though, at this point in time while dealing with severe strokes, no news is more good than bad.

 

[The Lilywhites]

Met you Jim, seen you play, watched your shows. Get well soon mate the Greatest ever Spurs and England goal machine.

 

[lillywhites61]

Keep strong Jimmy, such a genuine legend of not only Spurs but the game. Pull through son

 

[tippspur59]

Very sad news,hope he makes a good recovery.

The best striker this club has ever seen without question.

When I was growing up he was considered the best player in the country, not just the best striker. People forget he was AC Milan's leading scorer just based on half a season with them in 60-61 when they won their league. SIX times Div One's leading scorer, and then came pleurisy around about 65 and he really was never quite the same again. Keep going Jimmy, you can do it!
