Hull City are today in mourning as we come to terms with the news that the Club’s record goalscorer Chris Chilton has passed away.
Chris, who scored 222 goals in 476 appearances for the Tigers between 1960 and 1971, passed away overnight at the age of 77 and our thoughts are with the Chilton family, and their many friends, at this sad time.
Club flags will fly at half-mast as we remember a man who was simply worshipped by the thousands that watched him play at Boothferry Park, and whose goal-scoring exploits may never be bettered.
