Nigel Sims. Hero of '57
« on: March 15, 2012, 06:10:21 PM »

Nigel Sims, hero of '57, interviewed on AVTV. Certainly worth a look
He also has a book coming out, can't remember title. Definitely worth a look
The proceeds are going towards Acorns and to help pay for an operation he needs.
I sincerely hope he sells thousands

Probably the best Villa keeper I've seen. Certainly up there with Rimmer and more consistent than Bosnich

Well, my copy's been ordered :-)
In his interview on AVTV Nigel says that Nigel Spink was a great keeper.
I agree, always thought he was more reliable than Bosnich. Think Spinksy was very underated.
Never had the privilege of watching Nigel Sims, but, like you say Frank, I'm sure he's one of our Top 3

Doesn't say what the price is, and how the 57 premium packs will be distributed.
I've ordered.
