Former England international Nat Lofthouse OBE has died aged 85, Bolton have announced on their official website.
Lofthouse made more than 450 appearances for the Trotters, scoring 255 goals for the club between 1946 and 1960.
He also represented England 33 times and scored 30 goals.
Bolton announced Lofthouse had died peacefully in his sleep at his nursing home last night.
Bolton chairman Phil Gartside told
www.bwfc.co.uk: "On behalf of everyone at Bolton Wanderers Football Club, I would like to extend our deepest condolences to Nat's family, who are very much in our thoughts at this time.
"Nat undoubtedly is a Bolton Wanderers legend. He was a one-club man and our football club meant as much to him as he did to us.
"We will miss him but we will celebrate his life, his legacy and great times that he brought to Bolton Wanderers."
A true great of yester year.
R.I.P Nat :(

A true leg end and was my old man's hero. Burying the ball and Harry Gregg into the back of the net STILL upsets devilworshippers so I mention it regularly:o)
RIP Nat fella.

Just that one act has put smiles on so many faces. And he did so much more.
A true footballing legend.
RIP Nat
Your right leg I like; I've got nothing against your right leg. The trouble is neither have you.

Bury fans will have one less song to sing today, they finally got their wish - cunts.
