    They should’ve found a way to play Kane and Vardy together. 

    Said it at the time and it’s obvious even more so now everyone is seeing kanes passing at Bayern, him dropping deep taking defenders and then Vardy running on to those passes would have been amazing for England

    Sheffield United, 2-5. Gary Fitzpatrick was our best player and we never saw him again. The Double Decker was full of Sheffield United fans, who were actually really decent chaps by and large. Harry Bassett was their boss, and I think there's an old doc on Youtube somewhere which shows him in the dressing room, being very very Dave Bassett. I got to know the ref years later too. Also a very nice chap. I can't remember who scored our goals. 

     

    I think Marc North died only a few years later, sadly. His last game for us was the Oxford win (so, quite a heroic high to go out on) but, in an indication that lots of individuals get to play at this level without being anywhere near league standard, he spent his final years in local football. Patson Daka take note. As for our RB that day, it must have been Ali Mauchlen, surely? Quite the contrast with Ricardo.

    One of my first ever games I remember, sitting in the family stand about 7 years old baking hot day and we got battered

    Danny Simpson, maybe? I don't know.

     

    But but but... I should apologise for the tirade. I spent an evening with a very smug Derby fan and seem to have taken it out on Ricardo. Quite a rabid rant, wasn't it? We all have the capacity to surprise ourselves.

     

    At his peak he was one of the finest - more cultured than Simpson, obviously - so I'm not sure what came over me. If I'd been drunk it would have made more sense. I wish him the very best. Even if he was an exceptionally crap captain, and even if that interview he gave the other day wound me up to the point of distraction.

     

    Edit: regarding best RB, the poster who mentioned Pontus has an excellent point. Like you, I'm 46, so we both remember his heyday.

     

    You might even remember Marc North...

    I remember Marc North more as a goal keeper…

    Head and attitude gone since he's come back from injury.

     

    Well, that and the transfer rumours haven't helped.

    Not sure how true but the club coming out and saying we will sell him for £20m in the summer helps things
