    You have to remember, barrie, that football used to be crap in those days and there were no good players around at all.
    So much worse than today's sterile game!

    You'd have to learn to swivel your ankle through 180% to take them like Jimmy Mac. I used to stand behind the goal at the Cricket field end, I knew what he was going to do, for all the world it looked like it was going to the keeper's right, the keeper dived to his right, and the ball would roll fairly gently into the left hand side of the goal. It seemed impossible, to a young lad like me, it was like magic.
