    Nice one - a very special early Christmas present.

    Now there is a man who understands the game.

    My Mum, Dad & Gran enjoyed your 'share' WS.
    So thanks for that & wow he's looking great.

    Never saw him play but he got a hell of a reception from Leeds travelling fans at Villa Park when we played them in the Championship in 2018.

    Looking back at pics/YouTube action of him he's so 'beautifully balanced' on the ball, a genuine football artist who treated the pitch like his canvas.
    It does seem those classic number 10 types seems to have died out tactics wise.



    Bonus point anyone for team player in background & ground in above pic Mum showed me.
    Family not sure of year but Org might recognise shirt season ?

    That was Spurs away on 12/4/68.

    Pretty rare (blue!) shirt. Certainly one I’m missing here!

    I lived fairly near him for a year when I was in Harborne, Birmingham and he still had WBA connections.

    I assume it isn’t Smelly Vegetables, but my next guess would be Cyril Knowles of “Nice one” fame.

    All Spurs players look the same to me…

    Anyway, JG is genuinely a proper Leeds legend.
