Jimmy Thorpe- Sunderland F.C. goalkeeper

Chelsea were hovering five points above relegation when they travelled to Roker Park on February 1st 1936. The Pensioners drew 3-3, but the football became inconsequential when Thorpe, just 22 and a diabteic, later collapsed into a coma from which he never recovered. The Times of February 14th reported the jury's verdict as "death by diabetes accelerated by rough usage he received in the game". At the time, the laws of the game allowed more roughing-up. Goalkeepers could be tackled with the ball in their hands or bundled over the line for a goal. Thorpe's lasting football legacy came four months later, however, when the FA introduced a new law forbidding opposition players from kicking or attempting to kick a ball in the goalkeepers possession.
