The second of a new series where famous sports stars told their own stories and expressed their own opinions against the backcloth of their own exciting action.
First broadcast at 21.45 on BBC2 on 13th April 1969.
The audio is good but some of the footage has unfortunately deteriorated on the original film.
Jimmy Greaves (Tottenham always; England infrequently) is a football controversy. Countless thousands of words have been argued about him. Now, alongside others, he speaks for himself.
My job is to score goals. If I score a goal there's not many critics-Greaves (more than thirty goals this season)
He won't tackle other people, but doesn't shun being tackled-Billy Nicholson (Spurs Manager)
I can't understand how people don't see Jimmy as a great player -Danny Blanchflower (ex-Spurs)
Sometimes he ignores what he sees, but Jim Greaves is Jim Greaves! - Eddie Baily (Spurs Assistant Manager)
