    This man has a great story and tells it so modestly. Thanks for your service Luther.

    what a lovely, modest, normal bloke! A hat-trick for England on debut at Wembley. The stuff of dreams. I hope David Lammy is reading this.

    What a fantastic interview!
    Thank you, Nigel, for getting this fantastic and humble footballer onto your programme. I loved watching him play because he was so honest and talented.
    As an ardent Leeds United fan who appreciated talented footballers,he was without a shadow of a doubt, a talented player who delivered the goods his great club and country. Well done Luther.

    Being a Watford fan i've had the honour and the privilege of meeting Luther on a few occasions. Brilliant striker and an even better person! Top fella.

    A football legend and also a seriously decent individual , who has brought pleasure to many through his chosen sport and latterly much needed help to others through his charity work .

    I'd imagine the Watford fans back in the day had many fantastic memories thanks to Luther Blissett. Wish they'd had another couple of rounds, I'd have liked to listen to more of his football stories from back then. Top man.

    I’ve always admired Luther Blissett ten times more than John Barns. Barns always goes on about racism but Luther never does. Thank you Luther for giving us Watford fans the best days of our lives. I wouldn’t swap that for the world.

    • @NoLefTurnUnStoned.
      @NoLefTurnUnStoned. ปีที่แล้ว +2

      When Liam Neeson was getting slated and possibly cancelled for admitting he had racist views and ideas in the past on a radio program, it was John Barnes more than anyone who called out all the race baiting.

    • @paulgreen3361
      @paulgreen3361 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@NoLefTurnUnStoned. quite agree, as a Watford supporter I always admired John Barns as well as Luther Blissett, but once I realised John Barns became more or less a spokesman for racism then my view on Barns changed forever. I can not stand the bloke now. But Luther Blissett can keep his head held high for his contribution towards this country, Luther Blissett being the first black gentleman to score for the England team is well beyond what Barns achieved. I hope John Barns and Luther Blissett reads this comment. I don’t like calling anybody Sir but there is an exception for Luther Blissett. Luther Blissett is my top best player for many reasons not just on the pitch.

    Strange seeing Luther with grey hair, he was a legend along with Ross Jenkins and John Barnes. Great memories

    Humble, honest, intelligent and funny and not a mention of the R word in the interview. When football was about winning for the right reasons. Congratulation Luther for creating and then grabbing with both hands your hard earned moment in life.

    @fullenglishfootball5088 ปีที่แล้ว

    A few more than 5 black players in the 70s. As well as the 5 he mentioned there was Viv Anderson, Cyrille Regis, Cliff Marshall to name just 3. I’m sure there were a couple more too.
