Fabulous player Leighton James. I remember a quote about him at the time though - said he thought he was the dogs bollix and if he was made of chocolate he'd eat himself.Tremendous winger Leighton James,very similar in style to(it grieves me to say!!)Steve Heighway.
It was a young Sharpy then though ......Woodsy had his measure and forced the error lol
That looks like Ray Hankin. Darracott doing well to keep up with half a leg missing lol
I wondered if it was Frank Gray - Eddie's younger brother?
Think that you are right. My first thought was also Frank Gray.I wondered if it was Frank Gray - Eddie's younger brother?
Not pictures I know, but some memories in this video.
Frank Gray maybe?That looks like Ray Hankin. Darracott doing well to keep up with half a leg missing lol
Yes George was a decent keeper for us.Still cant believe Grobbelar saved Sharpy's header in the cup final which would have put us 2 up.COYB tomorrow.It was a young Sharpy then though ......
superb clip........shows that we can score against them.........and that we can beat them. Hopefully no more of this negative thinking when it comes to playing them. Our first eleven.can match them man for man. Nothing special about them as Villa have pointed out.Play that before k.o. tomorrow.
If your neck hairs aren't up,and you've no goosebumps.
I'd start watching another sport.
