Paid a lot of money for him for the time did we not? I knew from someone working at the club at the time that he was one of the main boozers under Wilson.

From sleeping it off in a ditch to break dancing in his own puke, there are plenty of stories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggest piss head I've ever seen in a City shirt. Remember being in the old players bar when he was here, he was always hammered after a game... generous to a fault though. Would always buy anyone a drink. Couldn't help but like him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offside Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 According to Wikipedia he cost us £600,000, which chimes with what I remember. He scored 54 goals in 144 appearances for City, so a pretty good record. I always liked him as a player and he played with a smile on his face. He went down in my estimation, though, when he was co-commentator on Radio Bristol when we played Swindle and he was rooting for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair he's only ever said good things about City when asked about his time there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 I liked him too. I loved the way he`d chase down what looked like lost causes and often get the ball and create something from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magicdaps Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 Met him in town many years ago, bottom of Park St. He was at the back end of a night out on a Saturday and eating a pizza. I was by no means sober but remember him being a good laugh, friendly and happy to chat. Decent bloke, decent player, and as others have said, despite his obvious appetite for a few scoops he was a very likeable character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, lovely bloke, surprised he could run on a Saturday the way he sank pints. "Evening Squire" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He and certain others were real piss artists. He got louder the more he drank, same as Scot Murray, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he was a really nice chap - seen him a few times in The George Chipping Sodbury - real friendly and down to earth guy. It was on Saturday and he had played and scored for us - can't remember who we played (or the score) but he was telling me how our fans had been playing up that day. Simon Clyst also there - he was a little up his own ass, was also a few other younger City players there but can' t remember who (I would have been in full Blackthorn mode in those days). Unbelievable that it was 20 years ago - where have the years gone!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
