Not sure if it was put on here but just seen that he passed away yesterday
Burnley were a bit ahead of time in those days with a thriving youth set up, they had brought a lot of top players through their ranks.First away game without an adult was Burnley in 1971, the top two sides met at Turf Moor and they hammered us 5-2. He, Steve Kindon and Paul Fletcher ripped us to bits. Martin Dobson superb in midfield
Yes. I was just about to mention this. Obviously it was printed and published before we heard the news.Horrible coincidence that he is featured nemesis player in this months fmttm
I left the holgate early with my two mates and we joined upwards of a hundred other hoolies waiting for the gates to open so we could run and have a go at the Burnley fans. Stewards open the gates and we ran in behind quite a few others then saw a line of pigs with dogs blocking our way. Some of the dogs were let off their leash with the others barking like f**k pandemonium and I then left for the station having lost both my mates.The first thing I remember is a thriller Boro 3 Burnley 3. He scored the last goal and went mad!
RIP
