Wasn't it Wolves, Millers and City, not for Forest (though he did score the only goal up there when we lost 1-0 ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only goal of his I can remember was the header her scored in a 1 nil win over Birmingham. I think it was a night game? Don't think so. Terrific header, such power from outside the D !

Donnie Gillies was just a sprinter, very little in the way of skill. Gould played in a superb Arsenal side. Don’t think Donnie would have made that side.

He was a waster with a big mouth. I saw him play one decent game for us and that was against his old club Coventry, which says everything. Gerry Gow had the right idea in dealing with him, and he disappeared pretty quickly after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
