This made me cry because he is my best friends grandad. I knew him well and it’s very very sad to think he’s gone now 😭
I am not a Leeds supporter but I always admired Hunter. He was a better player than he was given credit for. He wasn't just a tackler he could distribute the ball too. He was unlucky not to have won more England caps but he was in the same queue as Bobby Moore, however, if Moore was ever injured the side wouldn't lose anything because Norman would step in alongside his club mate Jackie Charlton to form an effective defence. A friend of mine met Norman Hunter a couple of times and he said that he was a gentleman. God bless Norm.
Norman Hunter, Jack Charlton, Billy Brenmer, Dave Mackay, Tommy Smith, and Ron Harris, proper football hard men
HOPE all the latest stars of football!!! watch this that how a foootballer should be hard but fair skillful, modest, guy, had time for everybody gone but never never never forgotten
RIP Norman,from us all at Bristol City,great memories.
Yep.........Bristol City legend
I’m not a Leeds United Fan but I’m sorry to hear about the death of Norman Hunter He. Was a fearsome player RIP “Bites Yer Legs” From Kevin Simpson who supports Aston Villa In Wallsend.
What a great player in a great team that were difficult to beat. I was lucky to play against him a number of times and he was a tough but also a very skilful player. John Dempsey ex Chelsea Player.

God bless Norman RIP 😢🙏
RIP Norman...true gent and legend.
RIP, Norman. A great footballer from the best era.
Rest in peace the great Norman Hunter , I remember the great battles for those league titles as it were yesterday, from a Chelsea fan , we’ll never see the likes of these warriors and decent human beings again in my lifetime.
Great footballer and a lovely man. Tragic loss. R.I.P. dear Norman.
Norman thank you so much for being part of that great, great Leeds United team. I was privileged to be there, as a young lad though I didn't realise how special you all were. 40 years on you & the rest of the team are part of the best memories of my life. I was lucky enough to chat with you in Evesham 1 night some years ago & off the pitch you're a true legend aswell!! Many thanks
RIP Norman Hunter keep marching on together from above 💛💙
I LOVE that Leeds team of 70 to 74 - and I'm a Liverpool fan. So many characters with so many skills. Norman Hunter always comes across as a gentleman in interviews. RIP MR HUNTER.
no namby pamby tackles from this star of the seventies....hard as nails!
Norman you were a real footballer, not the "overpaid wrapped in cotton wool" wimps of nowadays!
Respect Norman have seen you many times during my life!
cheers!
Football was better then ...in my opinion.
marsh thick ignorant prick
Norman was not only a hard man, he was a brilliant defender and that Leeds United team he played in were some team. They were also a big part of my childhood and I have great memories of following them around the country. True respect for Norman Hunter.
I am A humble Southend supporter, but always had an admiration for Norman Hunter and that Leeds team. We loved to hate them, but they were so good. And he was right about Johnny Giles, he was as good as they got. You can tell by this interview that he was genuine. RIP Norm.
RIP 'bites yer legs' Great man.
Loved the interview. I thought Norman was a very humble down to earth guy but we all know that when he played, he had a heart of a lion.
No, he was a cheat, a bully and a coward when a forward was FACING HIM!

Wow! what a team they were in the 60s and 70s. Great memories, great team.
RIP Norman.. a true legend!
What a fantastic interview - Loved it . So honest and also gave lots of praise to other players .
for me he is a legend not just as a footballer but as a person as well he was part of the greatest team ever
An absolute pleasure to watch this interview with a true legend of the game who played for one of the greatest teams Europe has ever seen. RIP Norman. (Graham Agg, Liverpool FC season ticket holder)
Grant coming from a Millwall season ticket holder..
I as a Leeds supporter your comment as a compliment..
As Millwall footballers and supporters are tough hard men...
Thank u..

I was a man Utd fan when Norman was playing and saw him many times .hard player who did what he was told to do by a great defensive club
Great asset to Leeds with their type of football.This is a great interview from a member of the legendary Leeds team which he played a great part in
Love him! Such a legend!!!
💙💛⚽️🏆💪
Great player. RIP Norman.
Good interviewer and good interview!
How could we ever forget the Revie boys Norman one of the best teams ever .... l certainly will never forget best time of my life going to Elland Road in 60ties and 70ties sad you never saw the lads get back in the Premier League RIP Norm 🙏
Thank you Norman for brilliant childhood memories R.I.P.
Yes that great Leeds side of the early 70s put it about a bit , and had some fiery characters,....but boy could they play,...and I'm a man utd fan
Great interview, the old Leeds players have a great way of talking about past and current affairs in football
One of the best player Leeds had, shall be missed
Really enjoyed that ,
Rest in Peace Norman
Norman Hunter what a great player he was Leeds through and through and nic name bite your legs . Get well and speedy recovery ! Thanks for being a Leeds legend ! Best wishes Chris
I still love big jack
I saw Norman playing for my local team Bristol City, the fans loved him, if you didn't, he,d bite your legs.
top man Norman. regards Colin, Bristol.
Good stories . Top defender in his days and tough as they come . Rip .
- Loved this interview. Thanks for the upload. MOT!
what a truly great player, what a great guy, so sad to see Norman go, and now Jack too. :-(
What a lovely man sadly missed rest in peace Norman
Great 'view. I joined the army in Harrogate' 68 & was ignorant of footy until I watched tv footy & adopted Leeds as my team & being Scottish, well plenty of Jocks in United & the rest of' em. Scots footy wise propped up Divvy One! It wud have been pretty dull without us. Back then money was tight but wish I had gone & seen them. Nearly did once in '72 but match was off due to snow, so turned car back. It had to be really bad to be called off back then, teams would play in icy snowy pitches & created great unpredictable games. If you're my age group you will remember Keith Weller being the first player to wear ladies black wooly tights, it was that cold. Now its normal. Two things in my life were the Beatles & Leeds United. And both funnily enough had that tight unique bonding. And both had chart hits!!
We're kindred folk folk we are, then, Willie me lad. Cheers!
Just watched this interview,heard a lot about Norman in the past. What a good level headed decent bloke he was. A credit to Leeds Utd.
always remember the fight with frannie lee...respect from a derby fan,great days!
Norman Hunter, Terry Cooper and Joe Jordan all played for us at Bristol City, they were amazing! It also made us think just how good that Leeds team with these three and the other legends must have been. Norman was sensational at city, non of the opposition would go anywhere near him, just brilliant!!!!!!
Norman Hunter=Deserved Legend
A great player and a real gentleman. RIP.
Isn't it nice that old fellas are still mates.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭sadly missed what a player ❤
After all these years, he is still very intimating. From a generation of hard men, Norman Hunter is a legend. Great interview :)
Every good young player he mentioned we bleeding sold...Cook/Byram/Mowatt. Proper football bloke our Norman...and a classy man and bleeds Leeds
The original " Stormin' Norman "
Class pure class
How has this only got 606 views???
Fuck off wilmo, leeds may be shit now but for a decade when Norman played they were the best in England and one of the best in europe
One of the greats. From a great team.
Lovely interview, didn't want it to finish. Not just a top footballer but from everything I've read a really genuine and humble guy who always had time for the fans. RIP
I remember the baseball ground 1975 when we played them , i was 5 year old at the time, i vaguely remember franny lee and norman hunters punch up, 6good view of it sat in the c stand
Great interviewer,
RIP
Great player
RIP Norman Hunter
Get well soon legend. ! 👍
RIP big man MOT
good on you norman
hope you're well soon Norman.
Get well soon, Norman.
RIP legend
Eddie Gray was Leeds best player he was like a Scottish George Best a genius with the ball at his feet who was plagued by bad luck with injuries.
Still think that time was when football was best!!
Norm had a sweet left foot. If it wasn’t for Bobby Moore I’m sure he would have had more England caps.
Bristol City legend
R.I.P Norman from Toffeeman👍👍
He is remembered for the error 73 wc qualifier.. The media never mentioned Shilton he made a terrible mistake. Ray Clemence should have played. The media never mentions Beckhams mistakes.. Media know very little of football
Leeds had some proper hard men so did quite a few clubs
Its strange how Norman Hunter lost his North East accent and Jackie Charlton never.
Now someone told me that they was a hell of a lot of skullduggery in that final in 75 was that true
Richard Sharpe absolutely cheated against Bayern Munich in the final should have a blatant penalty and disallowed goal for no reason leeds the moral champions of Europe in 1975
They had to contend with a division where there were 10 teams over 10 years that were all capable, not the same these days !
Is'nt that right, you never knew who was going to win the title !
Try rattling off the names of the whole team of last year's Premiership winners. More likely to name eleven animals at the zoo.
A great player but very sad his one major error basically helped to knock England out of the world cup
Shilton should have done better with the shot
@@mick6370 If you haven't made a mistake then you haven't done owt...and yes Shilton should have saved it...he let a few in through lack of stature...still a great keeper mind but no Banks!
@@splendindbastart Quite agree with you. Gordon was a Legend and a True gentleman. He was light years Ahead of Shilton and in my view Shilton a little over rated.?Possibly..The saves Banks made in Mexico 70 'Remarkable!!!👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Also Norman Hunter a credit to football and so Underrated then , luved the Carpet football of late 60s n 70s .especially George Best playing with Dennis Law and Bobby Charlton would run rings around today s teams Easy .Kind regards Glynn n Greetings from Stourbridge West Midlands UK 🤝
Revie a poor England manager Clough was a great manager European Cup twice
Nah just a fucking piss head with a mouth on him pure gob shite
a great side, but did not win nowhere near what they should have won , fell at the final hurdle far too many times
John Stones a poor defender not England defender
Jackie Charlton played for England more than Norman Hunter and Hunter was a far better player and defender.
So im on holiday sitting outside a bar in menorca waiting for the england game to start when an old guy asks if the table next to me is free.. Help yourself i say, thinking he looked familiar i asked my wife if he lived near us back home... Never seen him before she replies. So game started and england were hopeless, im telling the old guy how they should be playing. He asks me where im from.. Here we go i thought, i do know him... Newcastle i replied.. Thought so he said, im from there but moved away years ago to yorkshire he said... After the game finished he got up and said.. Nice meeting you, enjoy your holiday, and off he walked into the night. I remember thinking he looks fit for his age.. Must have been very fit as a young man.... Fast forward few years to covid and i was saddened to read norman hunter had died. The article said after football norman moved to menorca. It showed some recent pics of him... Then the penny dropped... Id only been sitting next to 66 hero and leeds legend for 90mins, telling him how the game should be played, and me never kicked a ball in my life.. And id no idea who he was, and he was to much of a gentleman to say.
R. I. P Norman.
Lovely, lovely, heartwarming story. Thanks for sharing it.
