Phileas Fogg Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 Good to see. That era of 2006/7 and 2007/8 is probably the time I enjoyed watching City most. Great times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dollymarie Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 Still remember sorting the card for him and Janet when they lost their baby. Lovely that they've gone on to have more children. He's someone who would always be welcome back, I have no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted August 4, 2017 Admin Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 Met his cousin at Edgbaston last season when Somerset were losing to Warwickshire in the cup semi final,he put Ivan on the phone to a few of us, had a really good chat, it was funny how things panned out for everyone after the trip to Argyle. Plenty more said, but obviously not for an open forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Septic Peg Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 What a guy he was. Could give Scotty a run for his money in sheer speed and a genuine bloke. I miss that accent too. Just gorgeous.

Crackers Corner Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 Which was the game where he ran the length of the pitch to score with their players at least a ten to twenty yard head start .?

Albert did more on his debut than he did his entire time here. To think he was one of the trouble makers who wanted Garry out when he rescued him from playing on grass among the horses in Ireland. When he signed he said something about wanting to put bums on seats. He meant be entertaining and be someone to watch but what actually happened was you'd sit there in amazement that he's a professional.

Good to hear that they have more children ( three boys). Great character. After he left City I always looked out to see how he was getting on.
