Ted at the Splash!

We went for lunch at a friends house who lives in Preston and stopped off at the Football Club.

The Splash

On 31 July 2004, Sir Tom unveiled the water feature sculpture "The Splash", by sculptor Peter Hodgkinson, which stands outside The National Football Museum. The sculpture was inspired by the 1956 Sports Photograph of the Year which features Tom Finney beating two defenders at a waterlogged Stamford Bridge.
Now aged 89, Finney is one of England's oldest living former international footballers. As of February 2011, he is also one of only three surviving players from England's 1950 World Cup squad. The others are Bert Williams and Roy Bentley.

I have met him three times over the years and he is a lovely man.
