I think at one time he was the youngest player to feature in an FA Cup final. Apparently he used to go down the racecourse every Saturday afternoon in the mid 60s , after playing for the school in the morning , and made himself available to any team who were short of a player !

rabuddies Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 Three years ahead of me in the JNI (Billy please JNHS) and I was in the same house as him for a year until he left (or they dropped the house thing). He was in the first team at 14 I believe. He was also Leicester's youngest captain during his spell there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
