Thanks for that. I knew you would come up trumps.
David Harle - 219 appearances and never went past a player or passed the ball forward, although he did score that goal against QPR.
I wonder if we'll ever see the magic 418. Doubt it now.

Interesting to that Syd Bycroft only scored 2 goals during all those appearances. Players really did stick to their respective positions in those days of 5-3-2.

He was then promptly returned to centre-half for the rest of the season - and indeed his entire Rovers career. Clearly a failure at Centre-forward!
