I saw that yesterday, I remember him playing for us and I always found him a bit meh to be honest, borne out by the fact that he didn't hang around too long. 

Older posters may remember him as the winger who crossed the ball for Ted McDugall's diving header to score for Bournemouth in that famous third division game that saw us come from that goal down to win 2-1 in front of 48k fans.  What a great match and day that was.

RIP Tony.

Remember we bought him in 1965 to replace Harry Burrows, who had moved to Stoke.

RIP Tony

I always thought it was Phil Boyer who crossed for that goal. That pair were a tremendous combination.
