Sad to hear of the passing of both Stan Bowles and Chris Nichol. Two cracking players in their day.

When football was a proper sport with proper real players...

RIP Chris and Stan.

Another two from my youthful days of following football.

He was an absolute collosus of a man, he just swept everything in front of him, he never missed much.
