Ackey Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Bumped in to him in a pub in West Didsbury yesterday evening. He was in with Bryan Gunn and another fella he didn't name. Great guy, really friendly. Keeps himself involved, working for Yeovil as a scout now and again and was down to do a Dinner at the Manchester FA. Was watching the Norwich game with great interest and had his photo taken with JSS (FANBOY!!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsslatic Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 (edited) Who wouldn't want to have their picture taken with Mike Milligan? LEDGE. Quite. Fanboy all you want, you didn't even want to have a chat with the man . He was a top bloke, nice of him to stay and have a chat with us for a bit. P.S. Bryan Gunn has really let himself go, and he was pretty chunky when he was in charge at Norwich. Edited March 12, 2012 by jsslatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Break The Silence Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Who wouldn't want to have their picture taken with Mike Milligan? LEDGE. Legend indeed, but wasn't a patch on Nick Henry... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perfectOzblue Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I didn't want to burden OWTB with JSS's face... Mega under-rated player with Latics. Doesn't often get mentioned as one of the stars of the 'pinch me' era but he was a key part of it all. Always remember his cracking back flick goal against City in a great 3-3 draw at Maine Road.

ghostofcecere Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Speaking of former players letting themselves go, did anyone see Neville Southall on Soccer AM? He has a head like Jabba The Hut!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudemedic Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Speaking of former players letting themselves go, did anyone see Neville Southall on Soccer AM? He has a head like Jabba The Hut!! He looked like he had eaten him. He was always a big lad, but he is now two seats big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollandspies Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 He looked like he had eaten him. He was always a big lad, but he is now two seats big. Saw Richard Jobson in Housing Units the other week and for someone approaching 50 he looks as fit as a fiddle.....I think he's working for the PFA.

fanakapan Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Who wouldn't want to have their picture taken with Mike Milligan? LEDGE. Me for one. He couldn't get out of the place quick enough when we were relegated from the Premier league. A relegation he was part of. Would have thought more of him if he had made a comittment to try to get us back up like Danny Murphy did at Fulham. Him and Henry were terrific though .....Yard Dogs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him and Henry were terrific though .....Yard Dogs He did actually talk about his exit with us when discussing the club's current situation. He bemoaned that there was no plan in place at the time for us to consolidate our recent successes following relegation. Us and Norwich offered him the same money and he went to JR and said he wanted to stay but wanted to know that there were plans to bring in quality to have another pop at getting back up. JR told him he could make no guarantees at all as there was nothing in place so he decided to go to Norwich instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
