Quiz: Name one of my favourite players.

[Woodwardfan]

One of the most successful British managers of all time said he was as skilful as Dalgleish. He made him stay over at his home on Friday evenings to keep him out of the pub.

A stylish, gifted midfield player and amongst the best 5 Blades players I've ever seen.

Final clues: I've been watching United since 1955. His first name is not Jimmy.

Sorry fellas, this man could make the ball talk. Not sure George ever kicked it straight!

Dennis Longhorn?

Serious now, it's Willie Hamilton.

 

[Pinchy]

He died aged 38 years, in Canada. His liver was 98.

Well done Pinchy.

The famous manager was Jock Stein and Hamilton played for him at Hibs.

Willie was a slim, upright player who had loads of natural talent. He strolled through games playing at his own pace, caresssed the ball and stroked it around the park. He played for us for 5 years and scored 21 goals in 79 appearances.

I never knew he had a drink problem until the other day when I googled after thinking of him when reading Wardonia' s thread on the Central League. Fond memories indeed.
