    Not a bad record for a ‘fat lad’

    Yeah, the guy was a wizard with the ball at his feet. We had Ali Millar, who was not at his level, but was our version. I loved watching him play. Millar was similarly built, little pace, but had a wand of a left foot.

    Are you talking about John Robertson, or Ally Millar?

    Millar. Can't remember who the corner was against. It was pre Allen Clarke though.

    I must say, old mate, your memory is better than mine, as I can't remember Ally doing anything with his right foot.
