@Sam6WHU I saw him live ... and he was every bit as good as legend has it! Only cost us £5,000 for non-league Southall ... we certainly got more than value for money! Formed a devastating midfield partnership with Sir Trevor ... shame that injuries plagued his career in later years.
@Sam6WHU Yup and a really nice guy. Met him in the stands at UP, I was probably 10 or something. Dev and Ray Stewart were just watching from stands with the regulars. Not sure you see much of that now.
@Sam6WHU I was lucky enough to see Dev live and he scored a beauty against Villa in 88. Just missed out on Brooking though
@Sam6WHU The most consistently skilful player Ive ever seen wearing our shirt ⚒⚒
@Sam6WHU Saw him make his debut. Even though we lost, was the best player on the pitch by a mile. Special talent
@Sam6WHU I did and he and Brooking were sublime. Fluid football - even on terrible soccer pitches.
@Sam6WHU He would glide across the mudflats of pitches back in those days.. effortless.
