qualities. He was famous for his sliding tackles that would probably make him the greatest red card winner of all time nowadays. In his time he was there to defend but he also used to make some great forays down the wing. As you know, that was an era that the fucking lords of football wiped out.

I didnt see him so am asking from a genuine position of ignorance and interest.
my dad used to rave about Young- rated him above Pele. again all opinions!
that team of the mid60's had true colossus' - labile ball Kendall Harvey etc etc- genie pioneers in football.
will we see their like again?
yes we will - Bramley Moore in 3 year. I think motes will lead us to some form of success and we wil in the next 5 years be 'top 6' again
(what are we without belief no matter how far fetched!) Previous Message
I see your point Gary, Baines had those attributes, but for me Ray was the best ever for us and England.
