Martin, Eric As a 14/15 year old I used to go to the Dell and you were my favourite player. I used to fancy you like mad. I wrote to you once at Ethelbert Ave and was mortified when your wife answered. Ha ha. I ended up marrying my own Scot so you must have set the pattern. I’m now 67 but could still name the Saints team from 1967/8/9
