It's funny, I remember him getting dogs abuse on here and in the stadium for supposedly being a lazy Kitson.
I've never seen any Rovers player strike shots from distance so hard and so accurately. And that includes Glynn. He was phenomenal in that promotion season.
One if those players who did nothing for 85 minutes, then either scored a worldie or would drop a 40 yard pass right on the money to give us a goal.

We were pretty mediocre that day but up popped Cotterill with a piece of quality to win us the game.I'll never forget his debut goal at Walsall. Never in a million years thought he'd score from there but he did.
He isn't wrong with anything he says with regards to clubs/managers needing to do more and the amount of footballers who probably have a problem with anxiety/depression or some sort.An angle he doesn't touch on is how footballers who are released at 16-18, some of whom go from being the next 'big thing' to absolutely nothing overnight, suffer as well. There is almost no support in place for them and they're left to pretty much fall by the wayside.

Rigo, there was another good article on BBC the other day about George Green who was tipped for big things at Everton, he now plays for Chester after some struggles the last few years.https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/45476430
