Norman T. Christie (24 November 1913 – after 1936) was an English footballer who played for Bishop Auckland, Huddersfield Town and Blackburn Rovers.[2]
He was a centre-half (central defender). He used to tell how he once jumped up with the opposing centre-forward to head the ball; he jumped with his mouth open, and came down with a mouthful of the forward's skin from the back of his neck.
