He was goalkeeper Reds when I started watching them as a kid. Always did his best and I remember him saving a penalty that won or drew us the game. I remember going home after that game pleased as punch with him.

Those days have gone Rascal , lucky to get 10 months out of players today .

Other than a young player having to retire early through injury I think we've seen the last of testimonials .

I think the last one I went to was Gary Fleming's in 1997 against Manchester City .

I forgot all about fleming,some players really have been settled with us, hammill realized where he'd been loved i think he'd make a good agent adam because he'd look at the player being happy first and lets be honest its about playin.out of all players in world theres not that many can have both.
