I read it earlier. I love what he says about Sid. QuoteGianluca Vialli, Roberto Baggio, Ruud Gullit, Roberto Mancini and Dennis Bergkamp are just a few of the players I played with in my career.Only Mancini gets anywhere near GORDON COWANS in terms of being the best.I owe a lot to him. He made me look better than I was.

I can't remember what the law was back then as it has changed a few times. There was a time when being level was offside, and also any player was offside none of this interfering with play stuff, so it doesn't look offside now but may well have been back then.
Is that when they brought in the back pass rule as well? It's all a bit of a blur these days.
Does anyone remember him kicking off a VP testimonial wearing a Bari strip?

It saddens me a little what happened to Platt in our eyes. It wasn't all his fault but whatever it was he has maximized his attempts to distance himself from the club for a number of years now. We gave him his chance, he took it and then some, and since then he has acted like he was always too big for us. Shame really.

I wasn't a defender you could say was comfortable on the ball!

He did it on the pitch which is all that matters in the grand scheme of things. The fact that he isn't a cheerleader for the club in the way Ian Taylor is means nothing to me.
