Alan Hansen

[Manchester_whites]

Seriously ill in hospital. Not looking good. Can’t believe he only got 26 caps for Scotland 

[tomski]

Sad stuff

[Zico]

Diabolical news

Brilliant player and seemed a genuinely good bloke so hoping he recovers fully from whatever he’s suffering.

He almost Signed for us

Didn't we back out because he wanted us to sign his brother as well or something?

[Popeye doyle]

Sad news. I always liked his analysis on motd and as already said a great defender.

Bit before me but I think the story said we wanted his brother and he suggested we take Alan as well and we didn’t fancy it or summat

Heard a tale about a night out in Southport where the young Hansen was stripped and tied to the pier by some Bolton "mates" who didn't tell him you never see the tide

Went into a chippy and the chipper couldn't understand him so he walked out.

Thats it

[Dr. Feelgood]

He was lined up to sign for us, early in, I think, the 73/4 season. We'd played Partick Thistle in the Anglo-Scottish.

A fee was agreed but PT were still in the League Cup so we agreed to wait. Liverpool came in later & that was that.

[Dr. Feelgood]

Anyway, here's hoping he overcomes this.

[passmosster]

Didn't the Board want Ian Greaves to cut the price by £2000 and Liverpool came in and beat us to it.

I remember was at the game v Partick in the Anglo Scottish. He was a class apart.

[Gonk]

What I struggle with is that 10 years have elapsed since his last MOTD appearance. Where the Fuck did that decade go

The only issue was we wanted john and john said no, unless we took his kid brother

Think it was a bit later than that 76 I’d guess.. I was also there.

Fair play, he signed for the Scousers in May 1977.

[Rival Son]

And the two Anglo Scottish Cup matches against Patrick Thistle were played in September 1976. We lost 1-0 on aggregate.

In his later years of being on the likes of Football Focus he always looked like he was pissed and talked like it too
