He’s one of those ones whose name pops up but he’d left before I was old enough to go to Ayresome Park and watch. I know about that goal at Villa Park in the driving rain and the mud, but what was he like as a player? There seemed to be a few lads joined the group after liquidation, did they fully fit in or did they upset the balance in any way?
Someone like Brennan sort of disappears from our history in many ways but played during a seminal part of it, and scored one of our most important-ever goals. Sort of like your Paul Kerrs, your Mark Burkes, etc. How did Boro supporters feel about these lads joining the club after everything we’d been through?
I saw Kerr play a few times for us but I was only 8 so can’t remember much. But Brennan always strikes me as interesting as I can’t see how he fit into our XI at the time. Was he a cover or a replacement for Hamilton with his injuries, etc.
