Bert Trautmann - R.I.P

[scousemanc]

Like many, I wasn't aware of him other than what my Dad had told me. Then one day as a boy I was taken to a fair and you could pay to take penalties against Bert Trautmann. My Dad put me up to it. I didn't appreciate at the time the significance.

Who was Bert's regular replacment, after he retired, in 64... Was it Allan Oggly?

It might have already been said on these 48 pages but I will repeat -
Bert Trautmann, legend, the only man to be awarded,
-an Iron Cross, an OBE, an FA CUP winners medal and Player of the Year , and he was a gentleman. R.I.P Bert

I was driving home from Manchester to Sheffield when I heard the news on the radio, it was like a sledge hammer hitting me, I had to pull over and just stared into space then cried, this man has been my hero for so many years. He was a fallschirmjager (paratrooper) and as an ex para myself I was always interested in his war experience. Bert was a true hero and lived his life the way each and every one of should do
RIP Bert
