Saw he commented on one of Town's facebook posts, praising the away support at Torquay. Anyone have any specific fond memories of his time here?

Scored a penalty v Portsmouth in the first game I can properly remember being at (I’d been to numerous games before but this Is the one I really remember). Everyone on the school trip got taken around the ground and we got seated in the osmond (when there was standing at the front) , so probably why I have an affiliation with the stand!

He Became my first ‘town hero’ and in all honesty, got me hooked on being a town. I wanted to actually call my son riordon, but the wife got her way.

I remember he was in the team of the season for the national sunday paper old Charles ekberg used to report for, even though we got relegated in 87/88, his ratings were that good. I only saw him play a couple of times as was just before  I started going 'properly'

It was the Sunday People.
He was a class player, somehow he managed to get relegated three times in four seasons (only twice with us)


Baldrick ! The only impression you can do is that of a man with no talent !!
