    The only striker I'd seen who was as powerful as David at such a young age was Norman Whiteside. David was an utter joy to watch. It was heartbreaking to see the lad leave and, as we'd already lost Ian Walsh & Gordon Owen, we went into the 1986/87 season without our regular front line. Needless to say, we lost the first six matches.

    £250k that saved us from bankruptcy. seems such a trivial amount.
