    • 2020 October 30, Brian Glanville, “Nobby Stiles obituary”, in The Guardian‎[1]:
      He had grown up admiring his United predecessor Eddie Colman, a right-half of greater natural gifts, who died in the Munich air disaster of 1958. By that time Stiles had already represented England schoolboys as a right-half, displaying attacking talents that would be somewhat inhibited in his later career.
