Norman Hunter (born 29 October 1943) is an English former footballer who played for Leeds United, Bristol City, Barnsley and England. He was part of the 1966 FIFA World Cup winning squad, receiving a winner's medal in 2007.
He has since been included in the Football League 100 Legends.
Known for his tackling, he was nicknamed "Bites Yer Legs" Hunter.
The nickname originated from a banner held up by Leeds United fans at the 1972 FA Cup final against Arsenal; the banner simply read "Norman bites yer legs".
Brian Clough effectively popularised the nickname by referring to it during the pre-match discussion in the TV studio.
