A blue plaque is set to be installed in Halifax in honour of former England striker Frank Worthington.
Worthington, who won eight England caps and scored twice for the national team, began his career at Huddersfield Town before playing for Leicester City, Bolton, Birmingham City, Southampton and Leeds United in a career spanning 25 years.
An initial fundraising target to purchase the plaque was hit within days of the campaign being launched by Halifax Civic Trust.
John Peters, volunteer and committee member for the trust, said the plaque would provide the community with "a way to remember" Worthington - who is believed to be Halifax's only ever capped England player.
"A lot of the blue plaque recognition has been for sort of industrialists and politicians - my thought was to see if we could make some of the nominees a little more relatable," Peters said.

To Brian: News that CBJ players Werenski and Marchenko are not wanting to stay in Columbus after their current contracts end is very disappointing to say the least. Also, remembering the terrific Columbus Crew players, Cucho, Zelarayan, and Aidan Morris that we have lost to other clubs/cities makes you wonder what’s wrong with Columbus. Are we chopped liver, or what? Or maybe something worse? Columbus seems to be a great place for professional athletes to develop but not to stay long term. Why can’t Columbus keep the star players that can help us win the big games? It can make a loyal CBJ and Crew supporter sleepless. We can only hope. But, hope is a good thing.
Sleepless in Columbus.

To Sleepless, er, Chet: I think the Blue Jackets part is pretty easy: Players want to win, and the Blue Jackets never win. Rebuilds get old for players who see their friends in the playoffs and winning ***** les. As for the Crew, that's how the MLS works. It is a minor league for the better leagues in the world. When players are deemed good enough to move up, it is in the Crew's best interests to set them free rather than hold them hostage.

Worthington resident Cory Fidler hit a once-in-a-lifetime golf shot during his work league round at Mental Memorial Golf Course in Columbus on June 25, his accomplishment even rarer than a hole-in-one.
Fidler is a project manager for the Ohio Department of Transportation and an 11.2 handicap. On the third hole, a par 5, he made his miraculous second shot from about 240 yards out for an albatross.
An article from the PGA in 2021 states that the odds of a golfer finishing a single hole three strokes under par are between one-million-to-one and six-million-to-one. The odds for an average golfer to make a hole-in-one are closer to 12,500 to 1, according to the National Hole-in-One Registry.
Playing from the white tees, Fidler was 513 yards from the hole on his tee shot. After landing in the rough with an imperfect lie, Fidler said he typically would lay up to the green. The golf cart's rangefinder read 243 yards from the pin.
"My golf partner is in the cart with me [and] is kind of razzing me to go for it," said Fidler. "So I pulled out the 3-wood. It was a little uphill stance, but hit it well. Not the best shot I've ever hit, but it was hit pretty well and right at the flag."

Worthington stated that over time, the change in business strategy may result in huge upside and a big increase in revenue per client. Additionally, he pointed out certain risks **** ociated with the Equiniti purchase, particularly with regard to customer demand and timing of these recently launched tokenized share offerings.
Back in mid-May, Brian Bede from Deutsche Bank reiterated his Buy rating, while decreasing the price target for Bullish (NYSE:BLSH) from $63 to $61. According to the **** yst, this adjustment follows the company's first-quarter earnings report, which delivered mixed operational and financial results. However, the reduced price target still offers an impressive upside potential of over 155% at the prevailing level.
