Bluedell 5,793 Posted April 4, 2024 Share Posted April 4, 2024 20 minutes ago, compo said: In my lifetime I don’t think I’ve seen a better sprinter if he’d have stopped looking across the line in the last ten meters he could have went faster. Yeah, the number of times he didn't give his all by slowing down at the end was frustrating. I love watching athletes break records and he could have gone faster. For that reason, he falls short of being a hero of mine, despite his unique talent. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott7 6,308 Posted April 9, 2024 Share Posted April 9, 2024 Didn’t expect to see Ha Ha Haffey in a team of heroes, nor Dunky McKay but no quarrels with Bobby Evans, centre half in that lineup, nor any of the others. Three of the famous Ancell Babes there and Graham Leggatt. I wonder how many caps he would have won but for Alex Scott, then Willie Henderson. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
