You lot came down to Wycombe in the 3rd round of the cup in '75...Middlesbrough were top of the 1st Division and we were in the Isthmian League..I must admit having a few tears. As a life long Boro fan, Jack's time at Boro in the 70's, and a brief escape act keeping Boro up in the 84... what a man, what a manager. The players he brought in, how they played and how some of them played when they went on to bigger clubs. Souness, the bad boy at Spurs. Charlton turned him round. Fatty Foggon, fell out of favour at Newcastle and shipped out to Cardiff. Jack brought him in, got him fit again and playing. And the whole host of young players he brought through that went on to good things elsewhere. I could go on and on...
Thanks for some great memories. Rest in peace Big Man, you've earned it.
