Sad news, I gather he was a very good player, one of the best in the 1957 Cup winning side.

Also played for Zambia.

Sad day. One of my first Villa heroes and a very accomplished inside forward.

Met him a couple of years back with Nigel Sims talking about their Villa memories, lovely fella and quite a character. Sad news RIP Jackie.

RIP. That's the last survivor of the famous England 3 Hungary 6 game gone. Can't be many of our Cup Winners left now. 🙁

Just Nigel Sims and Peter McParland from the starting 11.

And only Bobby Charlton from their team. Obviously most of them didn't make it to 1959.

Very sad news, RIP Jackie

Each year I become more and more proud of being born in 1957 (albeit in August)

I'm sure Jackie Sewell scored in the first game my dad took me to. Billy Myerscough also scored against PNE in March 1957.

Yep, a 2-0 win in front of 30,151.
