He was terrific wasn`t he, loved him to bits. Didn`t take any prisoners - just like Robbie Turner. He wouldn`t finish too many games today mind!

Can't quite remember Mcilmoyle except for game when he came back with another side (Carlisle?) but Galley was my hero growing up. I am not sure when the ball started to get lighter, but the day I saw Harford head in the winner at Brentford from the edge of the penalty area, I thought thats something I don't even remember Galley doing. Shaun Taylor was another that could really head a ball but I think the ball had been changed by then so it's difficult to judge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too young for Galley and McIlmoyle so big Mick was really the first out and out hard man I saw up front and you never forget it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I think that reputation hid the fact that he could play a bit as well, he was not just a hard man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely. It`s the same with Robbie T, Wilbs even Steve Torpey. You don`t get where they did without having more to their game than that.

Dickie Rooks. It seems every time I read the sport section of the evening post in those days it mentioned Dickie Rooks was having an injection in his big toe. It must of looked like a pin cushion by the time he hung up his boots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expected too much and was disappointed that he only scored about 20 goals per season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nogbad the Bad Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 Didn't see Atyeo, but I can't think of a better header of a ball than Cheesley in my time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
