Dickie Bird is in a tiny minority.

A sports official beloved by all the sport's followers.

Absolutely!


Hugely respected and admired, by players and supporters alike. Umpires are not supposed to be stars in their own right, but he was, without ever impinging inappropriately on the game he loved. An all time great.
