We only borrowed him from Wolves for a couple of months under The Doc back in 1969 when John Dunn was out of favour.

RIP. Can't think of too many who have played for Villa and Clyde.

I know. I’ve always found that a wild fact. I remember watching that final as a 7 year old and being amazed a former Villa player was in goal ( I was Villa mad but clever enough to understand why we weren’t on tv very often)
