And that's exactly what we're missing, on and off the pitch, guts, passion, belief. We've just not been the same since Jordan Rhodes went. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kameron Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Only proper legends should be pinned on dressing room walls so the obvious choice has to be Lee Bullen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to love watching the Hard Men in the 70’s and 80’s Ie Tommy Smith, Norman Hunter, Ron Harris etc.The Present day footballers would run a mile from them if they were on the same pitch as those that I’ve just mentioned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
