My first game. Mel Rees had a stormer, Deano with the lob. Stood on the old Kop corner with my uncle and cousin.

Considering I was a baby at the time I can't remember him but was told he could have been one of the all-time greats if it weren't for big C

A very very good keeper , a life tragically cut way too short

Very much so. Brilliant keeper. Some of the saves he made whilst playing for us were phenominal, I tell you what though< I don't thimk Coops is far behind Rees at the moment.

Not sure if it was this particular match but I do remember him pulling off a fantastic save from a Brian Gayle back pass or header.
