Sad news
He had a saying and still recall it most games. " feeding the budgie" when a poor cross or corner resulted in an easy take for the goalkeeper.
We all get frustrated when we are all waiting with anticipation, all the big guys are up waiting for the corner and it goes straight into the arms of the keeper!!
Feeding the budgie he used to say
Sad news indeed. A well respected character all round. Could do with a manager of his ilk right now at B71.
RIP.
I thought he had died years ago.
Just name dropping….I played golf, back in the day, with him together with Bryan Richardson (ex Warwicks cricketer and past Chairman of the Sky Blues)
