September 27, 200718 yr footy in charity events against steve heighway and terry mcdermott played 11 a side against Jim Steele just after he left tranmere,i have never seen anyone head a ball as hard in my life.
September 28, 200718 yr TrafTravel members will understand that one. But only for a fiver? Forgot to add to mine, I won a Bobby Charlton (spit) soccer school thingymybob ala David beckham, but the main difference is my career went better than his. Had to score penalties past Bobby (had an argument with him about Munich / 58 cup final etc as a 12 year old) the old cuunt andour soon to be keeper at the time Shilts - and yes he went down as slowly against (as opposed to on) me like he did at the Victoria ground a few years later for us...
September 28, 200718 yr And you didn't kick them to f?ck? Shame on you, Frankie boy! they were just some lads on uniteds books, never knew how important to the munchen they'd turn out to be at the time! If i could see into the future, knee high tackles would've been the order of the day!
