Weshallovercome Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Spent some time with him in Benidorm in the 70's, he's a bit of an arse if I'm honest. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlofOliveGrove Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Them shinnies are gargantuan! Imagine they were needed with the tackles that were allowed back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
attyjake Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Traditionally the shirts had the white stripe in the middle, this is how our new strip should be. obviously more modern though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDOWL Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Let us down along with the others in the “betting scandal”. Still annoys me that good working folk were paying their hard earned money to be loyal to the mighty Owls. That loyalty was seemingly returned by betting against their own team if we believe all we are told and read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m77owl Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Those horrendous tackles were mainly made by him. He didn't need the shin pads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a hard man and great to have on your side Personally, he was an arrogant, cocky b*****d. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extremely hard ( anybody turning up in the opposition to intimidate soon got a few crunching tackles early on eg Nobby Lawton for Man U in the very 1960s) but also very skilful and a greatly talented footballer. Rarely made mistakes. Catterick took him to Everton with him after a decent interval and he was just as good there and instrumental in them winning the Championship. Stiles would never have played for England in 1966 if Kay had not transgressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a chance, Alf Ramsey didn’t like Jack the Lad players, had it not been the betting malarkey it would have been something else, he was a complete prat with a fantastic talent.

owler66 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 My Dad went to school with him and played in the same team as him. He always told me a story about him, Alf Ringstead who played for United at the time came to their school to give some coaching, he had the ball at his feet and invited anyone to come and tackle him, up stepped Tony Kay tackled him won the ball and put him on his arse while all the school cheered, always been my hero after that story 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
