Rob W 0 Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 One of the Busby Babes - survived with a fractured skull I can remember seeing him playing for us in the early 60's - class touch but the rest of the team were pretty drossy and I think he was past his best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob W 0 Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 even when he played for ManU he was a frustrating player - could beat anyone with pace but held the ball too long IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob W 0 Posted December 26, 2009 Author Share Posted December 26, 2009 given his injuries it was a miracle he ever kicked a ball again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FCUM 1 Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Seem to remember he ended up at Mansfield or similar after you. He finished up as a security guard at the Colgate Palmolive factory on Trafford Park. How the game's changed! Only 4 of 'em left now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
