Scottish defender Frank McLintock wore this jersey during Leicester City's 2-0 defeat at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur in the 1961 FA Cup final.

The centre-half - also a painter and decorator by trade - was forced to fill in at right-half after teammate Len Chalmers went off injured. As this was before the days of substitutions, Leicester were reduced to ten men for seventy minutes, and ultimately succumbed to a 2-0 defeat.
