Some years after retiring Ted McMinn contracted a mystery infection that led to most of his
right foot being amputated. McMinn then opted to have more of his leg
removed in a bid to gain more mobility and independence with a
prosthetic limb. As a tribute to McMinn, on 1 May 2006, former
players of both Derby County and Glasgow Rangers contested a match at Derby
County's Pride Park Stadium in which a record 33,475 spectators attended
– around 10,000 of them being Rangers fans.
Ranger's manager Terry Butcher recalled after the benefit game, "Nigel
Spackman said to the physio (at the match) he had a tight calf, Ted said
'So have I' and lifted his trouser leg up and there is just the metal
stump there. It does make you think. You never know what can happen to
you."
To coincide with the benefit game McMinn embarked on a
300-mile sponsored bike ride from Glasgow to Derby to help raise money
for the Derbyshire Royal Infirmary's limbs unit.
It was announced in the Derby Evening Telegraph on 13
February 2007 that McMinn has started up a courier and taxi business.
The "Wisden Cricketer" magazine reported that in 2011 McMinn is was
employed as full-time kit-man by Derby CCC
