January 15, 20188 yr Great player and seemed decent chap and fit as a butchers dog very sad news. RIP
January 15, 20188 yr Possibly my favourite non Wanderer, I remember how he tormented and bullied Paul Jones in one of the best perfomances of a Centre forward ever. R I P gutted.
January 15, 20188 yr RIP. Apart from seeing him regularly on MOTD. Pretty sure one of the only times I recall actually seeing him was in a midweek league cup tie vs Coventry. Went to both legs, pretty sure he scored a screamer at Burnden. But could be wrong.
January 15, 20188 yr He got 2 that night. https://www.11v11.com/matches/bolton-wanderers-v-coventry-city-09-october-1990-32214/
January 15, 20188 yr Blimey - all my early memories of football are from the late 70s/early 80s. He was some player that lad.

Went to both legs, pretty sure he scored a screamer at Burnden. But could be wrong. Aye, think he did. Also remember he gave Stubbs a bit of a pasting. Nothing nasty just far too strong for him
January 15, 20188 yr RIP Cyrille. Did a lot for the game. I remember him from Coventry cup win and era but it seems he had left a powerful presence from his time at WBA
January 15, 20188 yr Very few around like him now...he was physical but not dirty & he was a very good player. That said he would probably get sent off every week now.
January 15, 20188 yr Regis was very quick, no suprise that he was related to Jon Regis the Olympic sprinter.
January 15, 20188 yr I always thought John Regis was massive - just seen a pic of the pair of them together - Cyril is even bigger.
January 15, 20188 yr Cracking player had it all strength pace good in the air must have been a nightmare for centrebacks RIP big fella.
January 15, 20188 yr As a nipper, he was my favourite none Bolton player, WBA were a proper force in the late 70s. R I P big man
January 15, 20188 yr https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XTAMsgAdsII Good reason to show this again. Gerald Sinstadt said this was the best match he ever commentated on. I think we bought Cantello not long after.

January 15, 20188 yr Good reason to show this again. Gerald Sinstadt said this was the best match he ever commentated on. I think we bought Cantello not long after. I went to this game as ours was cancelled earlier in the day for frost and my dad blagged tickets from his mate (who's cousin was West Brom's Chairman). I tell you who else must've blagged tickets was Jim McDonagh and Neil McNab who sat near us. I was 12 and a bit starstruck and even though the game was fantasic I spent more time looking at Jim and Neil than i did at the game. I remember the performance of Big Cyrille and Cunningham but also the saves that Bailey made as I was a keen goalie. After the game my dad struck up conversation with Jim and I could hardly breathe. He asked him if he would have saved those couple of Hollywood saves that Bailey made and Jim said "Aye, and I could've saved the other five too! "
