lou-peters-dive Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 He was the best midfield general we have ever had. He came in to the side having learned his trade with Bobby Kellard. Oh how we need someone like him now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cider head Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Gerry Gow in todays game would be sent off every match same as all the other soccer hard men Hunter Bremner Madley ect Possibly, but to be fair he scored a fair few goals for city and could play a bit to, he had a good passing range. Like most hard men of that era the name put fear into the opposition and at times that was all that was needed due to reputation built up by the media, not saying they were not hard but the press can hype it up.
