Johnny Harrison Skillfull CAFC youth product of slight build and small stature (he looked about 4' 11") In one of his first games, against Brighton, he was upended in no uncertain terms by self-loving lardarse Steve Foster. Foster then proceeded to haul him up, smile patronisingly and pat him on the head several times like you would a cheeky toddler. I don't think JH ever recovered from the humiliation
Peter Knowles. Wolves wonderkid who I witnessed put on a sublime display of skill and invention at the Valley one saturday back in 1966. The Wolves fans idolised him. Within a year or 2 he had become a Jehovah's Witness and gave up football completely.
His brother Cyril had a distinguished career as a full-back for Spurs and as far as I know never turned to religion. Nice one Cyril
Remember Jose Dominguez, the ex-Spurs player really well as a mate at school had a weird obsession with him, he honestly thought he was one of the best players in the league but didn't get many chances.
I remember him. People who do not understand football often favour ball-playing midgets because they look pretty. I'll take Carl Leaburn every time. I draw the line at Makienok, though.
Watched Millwall trounce Ipswich by something like 8-1 back in the 50's. For some reason I remember the names of the goalkeepers and no other players. In goal for Ipswich was a guy called Burns who seemed incredibly old to me and certainly too old to jump. In goal for Millwall was Hinton but I cann't remember their first names.
2. Quiz games v a bunch of lads from Barnet FC. Go into the pub with our lot and one of ours would say is Alan Biley playing for then tonight. Everytime without fail.
