Who gives a fook about the fitness coach ? I’d never heard of him or knew he was part of the staff till this week


If you haven't heard of him it means he's not important then?

Wish I'd known about this before. That list is pretty much why I'm on this site, 46 years on, 200 miles away, still following.

Well, to be honest I had a few years off in the late 70s-82. For my own warped teenaged reasons. Probably missed our best ever era since the 30s!

On the subject of players past, there was a good interview with Tony Ford on the OS this week, I haven't seen it mentioned on here. He was talking about his career and he came acoss really well.. There was some footage of a couple of games involving Tony and the good team of that era, it showed a couple of meaty tackles, including a friendly one by Sir R Cumming, but what was noticable was the fact that the players tackled just got up and ran off, no rolling around on the floor if they'd been shot and no mass gathering around the ref trying to induce a sending off etc.
There was also some brief footage of Fred "How" Dineage interveiwing the players on the pitch after possibly beating Sheff Utd to win promotion.. that's only a guess.. there was no soundtrack.. but just thought if that type of footage still exists it would be good to see it in its entirety... it's good to reminisce to a better time!

Well being Mr Picky they are certainly not all from 72 as think Bobby Ross would have been retired a couple of years by then & Phil Hubbard would have played against us for LINCOLN prior to joining Norwich. Phil is certainly a big lad now or was when I last saw him at golf club. Jim  Lumby could have been a youngster on the books but broke through two or three seasons later.

Certainly a fantastic gathering of old favourites but for many my age the King will always be Sir Matt and that fantastic return back to BP adding 5000 to the gate, Matt came back in 1970 I think and we had good finish to that season and Bobby Kennedy a little unlucky to get the boot but 71/72 was just a great season and what a start 4-1 home to Sunny, 4-3 home to Donny in League Cup and 4-3 away win at Exeter, no wonder we were all hooked as young teenagers πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„
