| Jabba's Comments |
Eddie Bannister played football in glasses to correct serious
short-sightedness but fortunately contact lenses were coming into
more general use and he was able to use the slightly less ungainly
method of sight correction later in his career. A solid enough
full-back, he played quite a few games in the nightmare 1946-47
season that saw Leeds fail to win a single game away from home.
