Jimmy Hill RIP, by .dappy on Dec 19, 2015 16:52:16 GMT 1, Former Match of the Day presenter Jimmy Hill, one of English football's most influential figures, died on Saturday at the age of 87.
As chairman of the Professional Footballers' Association, he led the campaign for the scrapping of maximum wages for professional footballers. (would he believe where this has led to?)
He played 297 games for Fulham and was later manager and chairman at Coventry.
Hill - diagnosed with Alzheimer's in 2008 - made more than 600 appearances as presenter of Match of the Day.
Jimmy Hill scored 52 goals in 297 appearances for Fulham between 1952 and 1961

Jimmy Hill RIP, by Finsbury on Dec 20, 2015 1:06:12 GMT 1, RIP to him but in all honesty diminishing the ยฃ20 salary cap was a terrible move imo hence why many of us are paying obscene amounts to attend matches as well as the many more that have been priced out. I've seen the word 'Legend' mentioned many times, not in my eyes he wasn't.
