Tommy was a robust and bustling CF, with skill added. And tricky. First match at Love Street he did a thing we'd never seen.. High, long ball out of defence - him and CH went for it. Then... Tommy ducked down, tiny, crouched on the ground, instead of jumping. The CH took his eye off the ball. And Tommy was off and sprinting for the ball following its trajectory when it flew forward - after going unchallenged. Gamesmanship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he not go in goal in a game at Love Street against Motherwell when DIck Beattie got taken off with a broken ankle/leg following a tackle following a tackle/clash with Bobby Roberts or has my old mind really gone downhill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could do with him now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
