Might be worth it's own thread actually! Played alongside Tommy at an amateur level and he stood out big time. Got the ball just inside our opponents half, beat 5 players making them look like statues, rounded the keeper before committing a huge h1b5 take when he took the ball to the goal line, knelt down and nodded the ball home. id have halved him in two if I’d been on the other side……… but what audacity eh!!!!!!!!!

He had such a sad but kind look in his eyes.
