  1. A true legend indeed. What I remember is the flamboyant appearance, hairstyle and dress sense, but most of all the natural talent he had as a footballer. He taunted the opposition with his tricks and skill, but was strong and could score goals as well. Also what a lot of people forget is unlike today's players, he was usually performing on a muddy pitch, with a heavier ball and defenders who were allowed to kick lumps out of him. Two words to sum him up.....NATURAL ENTERTAINER
  2. Living only a Paul Robinson goalkick away from Hurst Cross, Ashton United would probably be my team of choice. Pity the reserves stopped playing games there.
  3. Bit slow off the mark even in those days and think I am at the back somewhere. Happy Days and will probably do the same again even slower should we go up. Older but not much wiser!!!
  4. Like it, not much success after 73/74 but happy days indeed. Cheers Loftyboy
