Did you bother asking for his autograph?
A really good read. Brings back plenty of memories, some good but mostly bad. Even pre Richardson we had some dire times with the McKay/Kinnear era teams. I remember at the time thinking that being a Rovers fan couldn't get much worse. What little I knew. Just a shame that we couldn't keep the youth team together.
Tommy Tynam must have been unluckiest striker in the world whilst with usNever seen anyone hit woodwork so much
