Had a fair few shandies with the likes of Mick Leonard, Rachid Harkouk, Pedro et al back in the day but I think a pint with Sir Jimmy and/or Neil Warnock might have been interesting.

Jimmy did tell me who his best ever signing was although I told him I disagreed, which as long as I bought him another pint he said he would think about before telling me I was still wrong!
I remember regularly seeing Jimmy in Lawton's bar at half time during his last few years. He usually ordered a coffee, and more often than not someone in the bar queue would say "Do you want a whisky in that Jim?" Jimmy would give his unique grin and say "Aye, go on then"!
Rach was a very talented and gifted footballer.
I recall that he appeared before Magistrates after a late night altercation in a burger restaurant , on Clumber Street.
Rach was alleged to have asked a guy
" who had ( apparently ) kicked his girlfriend ? "
The guy replied " it certainly wasn't you you'd have missed !" causing much amusement to the queuing patrons.
RH had missed a penalty for Notts that afternoon , didn't see the funny side and thumped the guy.
Thanks for sharing this as I've not seen it before. A great performance by Steve Cherry in goal some class saves. I thought some of our shots could have been on target if I'm being critical. It looks like it was a memorable game much like the FA cup game against Man City some 20 years later.
