Thousands line streets for fans farewell to Sir Jack Hayward

Thousands lined the streets of Wolverhampton to bid their final farewells to Sir Jack Hayward. He passed away three weeks ago while in Florida, aged 91.

He was a multi-millionaire who gave generously to many charities and causes.

But in the Midlands he's remembered for ploughing more than £70million of his own money into Wolverhampton Wanderers - saving it from extinction and taking it back to the top flight of English football.

Steve Clamp reports on today's farewell.
