Ta. Billy George the other one then.

Bozzie couldn't take a goal kick.

Bozzie couldn't take a goal kick.

Last game of the season when we were playing Southampton (?) and he absolutely lost it and it ended up with Southgate having to take them.

For me Jimmy Rimmer just edges it over Emi. The professionalism to come off in the European Cup Final rather than try and play and enjoy the glory just shades it in his favour.

Also an honourable mention to Jim Cumbers who helped us to get out of the Third Division. Competent rather than extraordinary but with a booming kick which would often land just outside the oppositions 18 yard box.

Difficult for any fan to judge this if they haven’t seen all of those keepers in regular action. I go back to the sixties. For me, good though Martinez is, Jimmy Rimmer shades it.

Martinez would have pulled out in the warm up
