Not much good on the floor but lethal in the air. Absolutely Harry a bit like Keith Ellis who (I think but my memory is a bit dim these days) scored a hat trick when we dumped Busby's Babes 7-2 at Old Trafford in the cup replay. Bronco could head a ball mind and John Hickton too. Swanny in defence.....An embarrassment of riches! Fletcher wouldn't have made the reserves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beswetherick Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Tudgay was like a reverse Nuhiu - I’m sure he was only about 5’10 or 5’11 but he was unbelievable in the air, in both boxes as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sibon Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Heid the baw is one of my favourite pieces of Glaswegian slang. Here’s what Urban Dictionary make of it https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.urbandictionary.com/define.php%3fterm=heid%2bthe%2bbaw&=true So it’s a throw up between Paolo DiCanio and Nile Ranger.

toppOwl Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Mark Bright was a great header of a ball, some of his nod ons were as good as accurate passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though watching replays of the Boy Wonders goal against the Mancs where Bruce and Pallister are left looking at each other is always pleasing to watch. Though Carlton's crazy header at Everton was great. Agree. In my lifetime, Chapman attacking; Lyons defending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
