Saw him in the famous replay at the Bridge when they beat us 4-0 after that Goldstone 1-1 draw in the cup.
Saw a TV interview with him a couple of years back. Came across as a genuinely modest and nice guy.
And his son Mark had a great career, a fantastic classic no9.

I remember the famous photo of him jumping for a header in front of the north stand. Looked like he was 6 feet off the ground. A great old fashioned centre forward with a great spring and powerful header. RIP

I remember seeing him play against us at The Goldstone in early seventies, for Notts County. A real old fashioned centre forward indeed.

I seem to remember he was won of those footballers who moved clubs a lot. He was always getting transferred, far more than other players did. Not because he was poor, he wasn't, he was a good player, just wanted by a lot of clubs.
And back in them there days, as long as you didn't ask for a transfer you got 15% of the transfer fee, so he must have made a fortune. Nothing like today's footballers money of course, but a lot of money for those days.

Had lunch with him at a golf day, top bloke. Saw him get stretcherd off at West Ham when I were a lad and he remembered it well

I was there too. I think the amazing thing about his goal was that it wasn't a header. He was famously clumsy with his feet.

That'll be it, hence my shock at his age
That was a dreadful day. And I was living inPortsmouth at the time so took a lot of stick in the days that followed.

I also saw that '71 game when his career was running down and he was back playing for a very good Notts County team.
