Harold "Nally" Nattrass was a miner from Durham, known as "the best dressed referee". When he heard he was assigned to take charge of the 1936 FA Cup final, only a year after he became a League referee, Nattrass admitted he never had "kicked a football in his life".

MINER

  • The following is Harold Nattrass' comment in an Irish newspaper after Ireland - Hungary in 1936.
    It was one of the hardest games I have ever refereed. The Hungarians are a better side than Germany, whose match with Scotland this year I refereed.
    Ireland might have got a second penalty in the second half when your inside left was fouled, but he was in a scoring position, and I played the advantage rule and he failed to use his chance.
