Talk:Bobby Moore

Editing
After watching the BBC program on Bobby Moore this evening, anad referencing across to a few websites, I have added a few updates to the previous edition. I have also split the article up into more readable/accesible chunks. Rgds, --Trident13 21:57, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Spiritual home
I would be inclined to say that Upton Park was Bobby Moore's spiritual home, rather than Wembley. Wembley was the scene of Moore's greatest successes, but the skills and spirit he took to Wembley were garnered from his time under Ron Greenwood at Upton Park. Will

WC 1970

 * YES! why would he want to steal some stupid jewelry.. he could easily have afforded the jewelry if he wanted it that badly! ..also why would he take such a big risk stealing the jewlelry just before the world cup was about to start!

Dubious information
Caps and goal figures in the article likely contain European cup/Domestic cup data in addition to Domestic League data (this is very certain based on this user's previous edits containing similar information . Please correct this issue and leave a note here, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Alfmaster#Footballers.27_European_goals, to warn this person about putting improper information on Wikipedia. --Palffy 21:11, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Photos
This article could use a better photograph of him, and one of him in his later years. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.46.233.8 (talk) 18:36, 3 May 2007 (UTC).

Fair use rationale for Image:1964 Cup final.jpg
Image:1964 Cup final.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot (talk) 04:55, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Contract
"Moore had let his contract slip to termination, and only after the intervention of Sir Alf Ramsey and realisation he was technically ineligible to play, did he re-sign with West Ham to allow him to captain the England team of 1966." - why would being out of club contract prevent him from playing for England? There have been plenty of examples of players representing their country (not England, necessarily, but it's certainly occurred) whilst not actually affiliated to a club..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 14:33, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

This is because at the time to play for an international team the rule was that you had to be contracted to a professional club. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.4.9.82 (talk) 12:56, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

Stadium
A stand at West Ham United was named after Bobby Moore. It is opposite the Centenary Stand.

Poverty & Debt
Just today, there are press articles quoting his wife, which state that upon his return from the management role in Hong Kong, he was virtually penniless and in serious debt. The article goes on to state that after arriving in the UK, he seemed to "shake for days" with stress arising from financial worries. Not my article. And not that interested. Those more involved may wish to pursue this. Hanoi Road (talk) 02:04, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
