Peter Broadbent went from being the young apprentice in the team who made Wolves champions of England for the first time to assuming the mantle of schemer-in-chief as Stan Cullis's side dominated domestic football. This is his story.

Did anyone ever pass the ball with the accuracy of David Beckham? Was there a player with the trickery of Joe Cole? Did any midfielder score as many goals as Frank Lampard?

If you are a Wolverhampton Wanderers fan of a certain vintage, your answer to each of those questions would be yes: Peter Broadbent. He is still revered by older Wolves fans who remember his sublime football skills with great affection

It was those qualities that emerged as the unassuming youngster made the long journey from the Kent coalfields to the football hot bed that was the Black Country in the 1950s.

Sadly, Broadbent now has Alzheimer’s disease and the joy and memories he gave to many are lost to him. Here, with the help of his wife Shirley, former team-mates and fans, the author will tell the story of the man who will always be Peter the Great.

Nice wedge pillow but not enough...
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 24x24x12 inch
It came compacted and when I opened it expanded almost immediately, maybe took like 20 minutes to fully decompress. Its soft and comfortable and the cover is really nice. But it does have a strong chemical smell, which is normal for this kind of brand new memory foam, I just put it on a table with a window open near it and after maybe 24 hours the smell was almost completely gone. The problem is that I bought this to have a elevated position when sleeping but the 30° are just not enough for me. I wish it was at least 45° but I could not find any pillow with that amount of degree... it's either 30° or like 75° in the other position. At the base of the pillow there is a little ridge that is comfortable for the lower back but makes me slide down in the middle of the night so I end up almost laying flat with my neck on the base ridge. With my slim build my lumbar area gets some nice support but makes my head almost have a "fall backwards" sensation, I like having my neck have a "push-forward" position with my pillow, but when adding another pillow to try and get to a comfortable position it only makes me slide down even more... :/

Very firm and durable
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 24x24x12 inch
worked great for husbands surgery recovery. Very affordable, firmness was great, looked nice on the bed and also used it for the grandkids when they were watching a movie. Moved around with ease. Didn't use it to sleep with all night though. He could only make it half the night but that wasn't the pillows fault. It was the cast on his arm. Definitely did its purpose after surgery and the need to sit up in bed more. highly recommend

Sasstie Wedge Pillow
Color: Cool Grey, Size: 24x24x12 inch
Perfect. I used it when I was recovering from hip surgery. Relieved a lot of pain in my hip and knee at a time when I needed relief.

this pillow is huge i’m 5’8 and it’s perfect, as soon as i laid down it relived pressure in my back, i get hot fast and you can feel the cooling silk like texture, it’s weighted aswell, as soon as i opened it, it fluffed up an it’s been about 2 hours since and it’s already huge, it says 24-48 hrs to fluff up fully but idk how much bigger it could get lol it’s definitely worth the few extra dollars

I must have for pregnant women! Definitely helps sleep and comfort for sleeping!!
Size: 57 Inch, Color: Light Grey, Size: 57 Inch, Color: Light Grey
I do love this pillow, it does take up a lot of space on my queen bed! But when I wrap my legs around the pillow, it gives me much relief on my back! It also has basically a built-in pillow so you don’t even need to use a pillow! I love that I was able to unzip the outer material and wash it! You can use it to sit up and support your back, and when the baby comes, you can use to help with feeding! sometimes I have to turn it completely on the other side if I want to turn over, it’s big!! heavy! Very soft! Not flat at all! Firmness is great! Height is great! I highly recommend! I’m also five months! i got it about 2 months ago!!
