50 greatest Hammers

Submitted by Red Neck Iron on Sat, 18/08/2018 - 11:20

The official site has been running a series of the 50 greatest hammers. They included little video clips of interviews and the odd bit of play. Anyone been following it? Anyway the top man was obviously the man himself with a good little video. I was quite shocked sir trev wasn't second but only third. Billy bonds coming up second another good video. A critisism for the club would be although it was a decent idea why was there only just one or 2 clips of these players in the vid. There must be loads about! Very disappointing. Billy bonds was saying how he only used shin pads against Leeds. I remember at school playing without shin pads socks rolled down. The shirts were so thick when it rained the absorbed all the water, along with the heavier boots and half the school fields mud on your legs you weighed twice as much as when you started. Having to literally peel thick layers of mud off you when you got in. Pah footballers today don't even get mud on them.

Every time I stepped onto the football pitch representing my school team in 1972 I was Billy Bonds. I even got my mum to sew a white number 4 on my hammers shirt. Best of all I share his birthday 17th September. Legend.
