Korrekt.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Whitehurst
Var med Hull City på nedrykket til fjerde divisjon i 1981, men var også med på å rykke opp igjen, og scoret 20 mål da de rykket opp til 2. divisjon i 1986.
En skikkelig råtass både på banen og utenfor, visstnok. Senere spilte han for Newcastle, Oxford og Sheffield United i 1. divisjon, samt for Reading, Sunderland og Hull igjen i 2. divisjon.
He freely admits that he wouldn't last two minutes today in modern football - "Put me in a time machine and onto the pitch now and I’d probably get 12 years down the line" - and one of the many stories about him centres around a game against Bournemouth, when three opponents ended up being knocked out at once. Harry Redknapp, Bournemouth's manager at the time, said that Mike Tyson wouldn't have lasted two minutes with Whitehurst that day. "I didn't even get booked," the man himself shrugged.

"It was Boxing Day, 1987, he played for Oxford with nine stitches. He wasn't meant to play - it said in the newspapers - and I was delighted. But he did. Ten minutes to go, winning 2-0, I could hear him growling as we tried to pass the ball across the back four.
He had a collision with Bruce Grobbelaar, his stitches burst, the blood went everywhere. The physio said, 'It's bad Billy, you have to come off'. He said, 'You try to take me off and I'll f****** kill you!'."
---
"Playing against Nottingham Forest with over 30 stitches in his face after a pub brawl, Whitehurst was punched by keeper Steve Sutton, opening the wound considerably. Refusing to come off, he demanded the physio staple his face together (yes, with proper staples) and ran out for the second half with a hole in his cheek through which you could see into his mouth."

“Billy Whitehurst was madder and badder than Briggs and Shotton put together. He hissed at me at a corner – ‘Whoever marks me is going to regret it, I’m going to smash them.’
I catch David O’Leary’s attention, shout to him ‘You pick him up for this one Dave’ and casually walk off.” – Niall Quinn

Behind the scenes at Boothferry Park, Billy was the kind of prankster that would make the crew of Jackass look like Sooty, Sweep and Sue. In the communal bath, he’d wait until most of the players were in before moving his bowels and sending a floating yule log across the water. This wouldn’t be enough to clear the bath though, Billy would tell his team-mates to stay put in an extreme version of pass the parcel.
---
In another stomach churning jape, Billy once called in an apprentice player to send on an errand. He apparently wasn’t happy with his lunch. “Take this chocolate mousse back to the supermarket son, tell them I want a refund, It smells like shit.” The apprentice caught a drift of the stench and confirmed that all was not right with the potted product. Whitehurst erupted ” Are you suggesting that I’d shit in a mousse pot? What do you think I am, a fucking animal? Get to the shop and tell the bastards I want my money back.” Whether that apprentice ever returned can not be confirmed at this time.
