Mind you, I’m sure some were saying Matt Tees was over the hill when he came back.

Also we have to remember some others who were bargains like Futch and Birtles and Trevor Wymark.



Those 3 are great examples of top drawer players who have done well for us. All 3 stayed fit enough to play a decent amount of games. Futch god rest his soul was top class and 1 of my favourite players ever.

Obviously Hanson is not in the same league as those, but If he stayed fit he’d be a more than useful player to have but I fear it’s too big of an ‘if’ for him to have any significant impact.

I hope I’m wrong.

By coincidence, there is a story today by Marco Van Basten on the BBC on-line.

He had to retire at age 30 after missing 2 seasons with a very bad ankle injury.  He says in the story that the pain was not worth it and he wished that he had retired earlier than 30.

It was football’s loss as he was a great striker (winning world footballer of the year 3 times). One of my heroes.

I would like to add Chris Nicholl to that list, he was still class when he played for us.





When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Honourable mention for Sherwood?

I thought Taylor was here for the season?



I do believe he is but Wolves can specify that he doesn't play in any FA Cup games in order that he doesn't become " cup tied ".
