Yes I accept "not fit to be" is a bit unnecessary it's just that Bruce and Brian were exceptional players and made ordinary players look...well rather ordinary.

Neil won us the World Cup though.

Clearly remember Neil scoring with a great header at the Witton end. He didn't get many starts.

I'm not surprised tbh. Man City will probably play whoever Man United were due to start against in a friendly too.

For a one-off payment of £5.

Imagine paying £5 for a preseason game that isn't even live.
