two footed, could pick an accurate pass like Seve with an 9 iron. Great to see those goals again against E Frankfurt, still my most favourite game at UP, the atmosphere was electric that night.

That he was adept with either foot and remembers fondly him putting two past Barota( chelski gk apparently) one with his right foot curled from edge of the area and then shortly after the exact same with his left foot i wonder how much he would be worth in todays market!

fellow Forest Gate boy, not only did he play for West Ham, England Amateurs and England but he was also his teacher!!! 129 appearances, 58 goals!! Not bad when playing in the same team as Vic Watson!

Loved a frontman and he had a few favourites like Pop Robson David(psycho)Cross and one he felt was underrated but for him a player who put the work in and that's Paul Goddard and he used to wonder if the boys of 86 would of happened if he had not got injured early doors and so the Cottee MacAvennie partnership formed and the rest was history.
