A first Boro goal for a certain someone, in a routine 4-1 rout over Alan Ball's feckless Man City. He was a football genius y'know, imagine what he could have done with the Sheik's money!

And by a certain someone, I of course mean a pacey, young, slim Phil Stamp......

I loved watching Alan Ball play , he was superb. An English world cup winner how good is that.

I had Alan Ball's number 7 on my England 66 football shirt. The only problem was, my mum sewed it on and I looked like the hunchback of Notre Dame. Needle work certainly wasn't her forte.
