    Good grief - scary coincidence.

    There was a post on FB a couple of days ago showing a picture of some of the players including Frank Sharp. I commented on his arrival in August 1970, along with Les Lea - both signed from Cardiff. We also got MIKE KEAR on loan from Boro’ and the three made their debuts at Valley Parade. We lost 1-0 but the forward line suddenly looked much better.

    RIP Mike Kear.

    R.I.P. Mike. I loved his brief time with us and always wanted him signed full time.

    despite his brief stay, I remember him well. I was playing on the Sheffield works leagues that season so only saw the Reds occasionally.

    He was a good right winger and balanced the side well with Frank Sharp on the left. We could do with a pair like that now.
