Fuck me, with a neck like that he ought to be good in the air.

 

[Worksop II]

You'll find the same at the vast majority of his former clubs. He is rightly regarded as an irrelevant relic of a time and style long since consigned to the dustbin of football history and mourned not one jot.

...except of course in S2.

Just a smidgin of Harry, Top Division of course, cant do that fucker in the 3rd division nowadays

Permanent signings funded by flogging Long and Done if we need to raise funds for transfer fees.

Only a bit of fun on my behalf playing real life football manager but could that team be realistic and would it be succesful?

Suspect it will look more like

* Hope not Kay but can't see us signing 2 CBs of the quality we're all hoping for.

And SW19

What Bassett did at other clubs isn't of great relevance to me, I was just using the example to illustrate the point that supporters of clubs will have differing views of a manager, depending on how successful his tenure at any particular club was.

Bassett gave us top level football, the first I, personally, had seen. Whilst I've no wish to go back to the type of football we played to get through the divisions, I'm not going to criticise his achievements with us, which surpassed everything before him back to John Harris, and everything since.

that's a good summary.

I started going in the John Harris era, which was sublime at times, and sometimes the football was dire under Bassett but he gave us he only bit of relative success this club has had in the last 40 years, other than that one season the the PL under Warnock and a few cup semi finals.
