I'd have left that fella in my wake when we got legged coming out of Elland road after giving our Yorkshire cousins a footballing lesson back in the day.
I was at that match.View attachment 58014
He just didn’t quite get it…or maybe he did…
He was far more sinned against than sinning on the football pitch.Cheat and a poor excuse of a man
???I'd have left that fella in my wake when we got legged coming out of Elland road after giving our Yorkshire cousins a footballing lesson back in the day.
And the off field antics?He was far more sinned against than sinning on the football pitch.
One of the greatest sportsmen of the 20th century.
I believe he had substance abuse issues, which probably made him a tough person to live with.And the off field antics?
You dragged that one up.

Was it 5 or 6 England defenders that Law beat to score that goal.
Always makes me laugh when that claim is trotted out.
England were really down to 9 men as Jack Charlton had to walk about up front as he had a broken toe and Ray Wilson got a kick and could hardly run.
Plus it was a qualifier and Scotland didn’t even make it out of the group, when Baxter was showboating taking the piss out of England doing his keepie ups there were no England players around him, a 10 year old could have done that![]()
That is a bit harsh, I thought it was quite a decent excuse for a defeat.It's called clutching at straws.![]()
