That stat was in the Record the following morning , I 've never heard anyone come up with the Cowden thingy either. I'll take your word for it ! Record also stated that Ally McLeod was the first player to score 4 at Ibrox against Rangers , but Alan Gilzean had done it a decade before !

Off the top of my head I can only think of Charlie Adam For this reason maybe it’s worth Dummett being in? We’ve had O’Brien, Newton, Drury and Campbell off the top of my head, none who’ve come anywhere close to breaking into the EPL. What Dummett achieved was excellent, and who knows, without his year at us, maybe his career would have taken a different path. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
