Former Coventry City captain and joint-manager George Curtis, who helped lead the club to FA Cup glory in 1987, has died aged 82.
The legendary Curtis earned the affectionate nickname of 'Iron Man' and played 543 games in total for the Sky Blues between 1959 and 1969.
He helped them earn promotion from the fourth to the First Division during the 1960s before joining Aston Villa.
Curtis would later return to Coventry, becoming their managing director before taking the reins in a coaching double act with John Sillett for a season.
Having brought an end to his playing career, Curtis - along with Sillett - helped Coventry secure top-flight safety in 1986.
Their greatest achievement, however, was the iconic victory against Tottenham in the FA Cup final at Wembley just a year later.
Coventry had lifted the famous trophy by winning 3-2 in the showpiece in London.
'The thoughts and condolences of everyone at Coventry City and the whole Sky Blue community are with George's family and friends at this very sad time,' the club said.
'A full obituary will be on our website shortly, alongside details of the Club's tributes to George.'

Know that God says come to me all laboured that he will give us rest, if we refused to come to God while we alive there will be no more rest with him after death. So for we that are alive today is the day of our making peace with God by accepting Jesus today as your lord and saviour for after death it may be too late. God loves you. RIP.....
