My dad, apparently, was as mad as hell when we sold Joe M. Really rated him.
He forced us to sell him, or he was going to retire from playing for us in a very turbulent time at the Club under a Manager who was a horror - Mr Theo Kelly who treated the great TG Jones like dirt exiled him the Prince of Centre halves - he told Joe Mercer to play Centre Half - Joe blew a gasket & the rest is history - Dixie Dean warned them all on his departure - that Theo Kelly was a nast peice of work so he was proved to be correct - a very good side broken up by him -

Angering many fans with his 1945 sale of restless pre-war crowd favourite Tommy Lawton to League rivals Chelsea, the departure of Joe Mercer added to the woes of the manager. Having gambled on a big name transfer, Kelly's hopes of bringing in Albert Stubbins from Newcastle United to fill the gap in the attacking line-up were dashed by a rival bid from Liverpool.-
