I remember him as a versatile player who could play right back as well as well as midfield. I liked him in my early days supporting the Addicks. Iirc he only left because he didnt settle in London and wanted to move back up north and York were managed by Wilf McGuinness his ex coach at United.
I have a couple of obituaries which concentrate on his United career.
