Everyone looks good in their You Tube highlights. I bet even Ali Dia did.

I reckon even I could be made to look good in YouTube highlights.

I think I'd still be in the 'players who simply aren't good' enough list.  I am available though.

Dennis Jackson.

I got to know him when he was involved with the Old Stars. He was a lovely bloke who gave me the quote about BFR, "I played with Ron in about a hundred reserve games. And according to Ron he was man of the match in at least 99 of them."

Dennis was my manager for a Sunday League team in the late 80’s . A lovely bloke indeed , but not to be crossed either !

Did you watch them, though?

Highlights aside, people have different qualities. You can't teach height or instinct, and he seems to have both.

If there's one thing the club is lacking, it's a slight, maverick no.10 who's best days are probably behind him.

At least given how overweight he tends to look during pre-season these days, he'd be harder to knock off the ball than Emi or Phil. He could be our Jan Molby.

We ought to look at Matt Le Tissier. No doubt he'll want to do his own research into us.

According to Ron he invented the banana shot. "Trouble was, he was trying to shoot straight." He was one of the party who travelled down for the 1957 cup final - in told there were fourteen of them, thirteen have since died and I think eight were from brain-related illness.

I was thinking more John Barnes circa 1996.

Didnt Molby drive around a city centre smashed out of his tree and disappeared for 2 years

I think he disappeared from football for a while when he went to prison, but i don't think it was that long. Or did i imagine that completely?
