Did you know about Gary Lineker?

Lineker left school with four O Levels. He was again the First Division's leading goal scorer this time with 30 goals and helped Everton finish second in the league. On his final league appearance he scored twice in a 3–1 home win over a West Ham side whose title hopes had just disappeared.

After retiring he became a sports broadcaster and has worked for the BBC Al Jazeera Sports and Eredivisie Live. After his retirement from football he was inducted into the English Football Hall of Fame. He was top scorer in the 1986 World Cup and received the Golden Boot the only time an Englishman has achieved this feat.
