AudioVideo Wednesday, 23 February, 2000, 19:50 GMT The first gentleman of soccer Sir Stanley played his last match aged 50 Sir Stanley Matthews - the first professional footballer to be knighted - was the most renowned player of modern times. His professional career covered 34 years; when he retired in 1965 -aged 50 - he had made nearly 700 League appearances for Stoke City and Blackpool and played for England 56 times. As an outside-right he was without compare. A thin, frail-looking man, he had a marvellous sense of balance and timing; his sudden bursts of speed over 20 yards or so was one of the wonders of the game, and earned him the nickname "the wizard of dribble". His passing was extraordinarily accurate, and he was not so much a scorer as a creator of goals for others. Moreover, his sportsmanship was exemplary, and he was often referred to as "the first gentleman of soccer". It was said Matthews' presence in a team could add 10,000 to away gates. Stanley Matthews: "Wizard of dribble" The son of a professional feather-weight boxer, Stanley Matthews was born near Stoke-on-Trent, in the Potteries, and joined Stoke City straight from school at the age of fourteen.

The dazzling winger was capped 54 times for England and made 710 Football League appearances for Stoke and Blackpool. Undoubtedly his most talked about performance came in the 1953 FA Cup final between Blackpool and Bolton - which will forever be known as the Matthews final. How will you remember Sir Stanley Matthews? Do you believe he was one of England's greatest ever players and what are your memories of "the first gentleman of soccer"? Your memories I have a copy of a cartoon by C.L.Davidson, clipped from a Glasgow newspaper before the England game at Hampden on 22 April 1944. It shows the Scottish team being led out by Matt Busby, followed by a soldier in full kit, carrying a Lewis gun. He is saying to a remonstrating policeman "If the worst comes tae the worst Ah'm the wee boy tae stop Matthews." That typifies the awe in which Stan was held at his peak. Unique.

Sir Stanley Matthews C.B.E. Play Music Name at birth: Stanley Matthews Date of birth: Place of birth: Stoke-on-Trent, England Date of death: Place of death: England Place of burial: Staffordshire, England Sir Stanley Matthews C.B.E. was the first great English footballer of the modern era. Stan was never booked or sent off. His magical skills graced the soccer pitches of the world for an unprecedented third of a century, truly Stanley Matthews, the only man to be knighted before the end of his playing days, was a unique phenomenon. The Matthews mystique did not stem from his footballing ability alone. Throughout his career he remained a self-effacing, undemonstrative figure, utterly dedicated to the work ethic. He wanted the ball at his feet. He was the true winger, the fastest man in the game at that time over 10 yards which most consider are the ones that matter. Stan would shuffle slowly towards a defender, then sway to his left, as would his opponent - only to find himself tackling thin air because the Wizard of Dribble had changed direction at the last split-second and darted away on the outside! Once he was past there was no hope of catching him. He did it so often that opponents knew what was coming but, such was the great man's balance, timing and dexterity, they were unable to prevent it. Some critics reckoned his wiles slowed the game, but in reality they lured defenders out of position and created space for colleagues.

Stanley Matthews remembered fondly by Limerick team mate by Conor Keane THE name of Sir Stanley Matthews is never far from the lips of Limerick motor school owner, Ewan Fenton. Anyone who has learned to drive with Fenton will know that he and Matthews played in the same Blackpool side for 13 years and won the FA Cup together. Yesterday, Mr Fenton was behind the wheel coaching young drivers on how to pass their test. But his mind was on the late Sir Stanley — the wizard of dribble. Stanley Matthews, who died on Wednesday at the age of 85, will forever be remembered for that famous cup final in 1953. He and Fenton were on the Blackpool FA Cup winning side of 1953 when Matthews brought the team from 3 1 down to a 4 3 win in what has become known as the Matthews Final. “The whole of England was behind Blackpool that day, Stanley was 38 or 39 and had never won an FA Cup medal. Many thought it was his last chance and wanted one of the greatest players ever to win one. “He did it in style and it was great to be there, feeding him the ball and to be able to watch him do what he did best — play football,” said Mr Fenton in Limerick yesterday. Mr Fenton, who still runs his own driving school in Limerick at the age of 70, says the millionaire soccer stars of today are not as professional as he and Matthews were in their day, despite only being paid a maximum of £25 a week. “There was no drinking, no smoking on the premises, no dances from Wednesday night and bed at 10.30pm on a Friday night.

Along with the three Webb brothers, John, Brian and Peter, neighbors whose home in King Street had been totally destroyed in the blitz, I caught the 1.57 pm Inner Circle bus outside the Rialto Casino in Moseley Avenue, which deposited us in Swan Lane and we made our way to a spot just to the left and behind the goal at the Nicholls Street end. The City won 5-1 that day and a lean, swarthy center forward called George Lowrie, who looked and moved like Brazil’s Romario of recent years, scored three. The pitch — already hallowed ground in my eyes — had a slight dip near the center line in front of the Highfield Road stand where a bomb crater had been filled in. We were totally thrilled by the game and Lowrie became an instant lifelong hero.
