    Great player for the reds. Glad he's making his way in coaching after his playing career.

    I really liked Kevin Betsy. A shining light in very dark times. Came across as a very decent and highly intelligent bloke in interviews. I think he went into journalism for a bit after he finished playing before moving into coaching.

    You're obviously thinking about a different Kevin Betsy. Strong, skillful for a big lad, and a decent finisher is what I remember. 15 goals from midfield in around 90 games in mostly poor sides is a very respectable return.

    I seem to recall this from possibly Jay when Betsy was with us

    Don't blame it on the floodlight,
    don't blame it on the touchline,
    don't blame it on the goalposts,
    Blame it on K Betsy

    He just cant,
    He just cant,
    He just cant control his feet
