He's some boy. Since he made his senior debut, we've had 9 Prime Ministers!

He would have done a better job than at least 7 of them as well.

Definitely a contender for world's baldest footballer. Had a phenomenal dome for the best part of 20 years.

First time Ellison scored against us, Dave Penney was playing for us!

That was 25 years, 263 days ago.

Go back the same time from there and you're in a week when President Nixon resigned, and Showaddywaddy, The Wombles and The Rubettes were in the Top 40.

I can remember being in the company of John Buckley, about 20 years ago, when he took a phone call from, I think it was Aberdeen, and John recommended Ellison to them. John said to them don’t be put off by his baldness he is not has old as you think.
