japanjambo Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Thanks to Colin for sending me this. Shows how times have changed. From the NOTW 27th May 1973. It's definately a different kettle of fish these days! He told us all about the Sunderland saga last August. Bobby Kerr, who went to school with Busby, was the one who recommended him to Bob Stokoe(Sunderland manager at the time). When Busby was waiting for a call from Stokoe, Bobby Kerr suggested he give Stokoe a call to let him know if they wanted him. He *knew* Hearts had already put a bid on the table. When he phoned Sunderland and asked to speak to Stokoe, he was told that Stokoe was on the golf course! That was when he decided that Tynecastle was the place he was going! Thank gawd Stokoe was playing golf! (pretty ignorant mind you, not giving The Buzzbomb a call to let him know the situation). Lynn:ninja: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
