Roy Dwight - Belvedere
Roy Dwight indelibly left his mark in the annals of football when, in 1959, he scored then broke his right leg in the FA Cup Final while playing for Nottingham Forest against Luton.
He was also the cousin of Reg Dwight, the real name of music legend Sir Elton John.
But it will be Roy's bitter-sweet moment in the FA Cup Final that earned him his own headlines.
Belvedere-born Roy died in 2002 aged 69.
