Tributes paid to Norwich City legend Terry Allcock, who's died aged 88
His 11 years with the Canaries saw him make 339 appearances and score 106 goals
Former Norwich City player Terry Allcock has died at the age of 88.
The forward, who was part of the '59ers FA cup run, when the Canaries reached the semi-final of the competition for the first time, made more than three hundred appearances for the club between 1958 and 1969.
Born in Leeds, Allcock began his footballing career with Bolton Wanderers in 1953, where he played for five years.
He had a positive start to his time up north, scoring twice in his first appearance against Manchester City and the famous Bert Trautmann in goal.
Despite his impressive debut, Allcock only made 31 appearances and scored nine goals for the Division One side, having to compete with international stars Nat Lofthouse, Willie Moir and Harold Hassall.
Allcock then made the move to Norwich City in March of 1958, where he would go on to become a club legend.
His 11 years with the Canaries saw him make 339 appearances and score 106 goals, which put him second in the club's all time goal-scoring list at the time of his retirement.
The '59ers cup run will always be talked about, but Allcock remained a huge part of the club long after his playing days at Norwich City, turning his hand to coaching until 1973.
He was inducted into the club's Hall of Fame in 2002.
In a statement, Norwich City said they were 'deeply saddened' to learn of his passing and that the 'thoughts of everybody at Norwich City are with Terry’s family and friends at this deeply sad time'.
