Sir Geoff Hurst stays a focal point of media coverage marking the 60th anniversary of England's 1966 World Cup win. One publication wondered who he might celebrate the milestone with. Another source described the original squad as modest and cheerful.
One report remembered a fan who followed every match without spending much. A sports magazine looked into whether the winning XI was fate. A media giant noted that Hurst saw the final at as a teenager and never matched that experience. A global outlet examined the whereabouts of the medals and related tax issues.
