    Great interview. About Mel Machin. "He had this idea that we would play with three centre halves". Should have added "with a minimum of........"

    It was no coincidence that when Gerry eventually left us that Japanese Whispers closed.

    “It was quite amazing; I played in a reserve match at Oakwell when I first joined and I broke my wrist - I had to go to hospital and get a plaster cast put on,” reminisced Taggart.



    “I made my debut at Brighton and scored, and then the next game back at Oakwell the week after as I ran out, the fans started singing the ‘Ooohh Gerry, Gerry’ chant and there’s a load of them with bandages on their arms.



    “So it just sort of went from there and progressed, so you’d have five or six hundred people with bandages on their arms and before you know it half the Ponty End had bandages on their arms - it was like a sea of bandages.
