    Legend, and often seen in Rotherham. Met him in the papershop at Worrygoose Island a few times. A bit like meeting Lee Camp at Ravenfield chippy, I suppose.

    I've read his Autobiography, the book called 'Banksy' published by Michael Joseph.
    Not to everyone's taste though I enjoyed reading it.

    ...ex-father-in-law worked and managed Milspaur(?) years ago. A scout came to look at their midfield player and ended up with GB. They got a bag of balls and some new nets. When GB was on Thie is your Life they invited Albert to appear on it, which he did. He proudly had the photo of them on top of the tele for years.

    Millspaugh mate. Not a bad effort though

    The word legend is used far to often today. It should be reserved for players like Gordon Banks.
