This Cache is in memory of one of the world’s achievers, Sir Thomas Finney, OBE (born 5 April 1922, Preston, Lancashire) who was a former English footballer, famous for his loyalty to his league club, Preston North End, and for his performances in the English national side (1946 -1958). Finney was born at home in Preston on a street next to the Deepdale stadium. He was frail and somewhat sickly in his youth and stood only 4 ft 9 in (1.45 m) at the age of fourteen. When he was offered the opportunity to sign for Preston North End (PNE), his father insisted that he complete his apprenticeship in the family's plumbing business before signing as a professional. This led to one of his nicknames, the 'Preston Plumber'.
