Jackie Charlton: John "Jack" Charlton, OBE, DL (born Ashington, Northumberland, 8 May 1935) was a footballer who played for Leeds United in the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, and who won the World Cup with England.

Bobby Charlton: Sir Robert "Bobby" Charlton, CBE (born 11 October 1937 in Ashington, Northumberland) is a former English professional football player who won the World Cup and was named the European Footballer of the Year in 1966. He played almost all of his club football at Manchester United, where he became renowned for his attacking instincts from midfield and his ferocious long-range shot. He began to play for United's first team in 1956, and over the next two seasons gained a regular place in the team, during which time he survived the Munich air disaster of 1958. After helping United to win the football league in 1965, he won a World Cup medal with England in 1966 and another football league title with United the following year. In 1968, he captained the Manchester United team that won the European Cup, scoring two goals in the final to help his team be the first English side to win the competition. He has scored more goals for England and United than any other player. He also made more appearances for Manchester United than any other player, records which are still standing at the end of 2006. He is considered by many to be one of the greatest players of all time. He left Manchester United in 1973, becoming player-manager of Preston North End, but decided management was not for him and left after one season.
