Nobby was hard as nails playing in the stripes. There was no such thing as a 50/50 ball when Nobby went in for a tackle.

I remember when we bought him £30k saying that we could have bought the team for that money, but he proved to be a worthwhile investment.

Nobby and Wardy, if only we had players of their type now.
Nobby also could be relied on to attend and present prizes to local cubs teams,he deserves every success.

To Yeah, I was a bit annoyed when he went off to manage Port Vale, .

I was gutted. Hadn't we just set an away record wins on the trot just before he left? I totally understood why he chose to go to Port Vale though. Two divisions above us with their own ground, his original team and enabled his wife to work where she was wanted. No brainer.

At the time I thought he would probably not have moved for many other teams

1970–1976 Port Vale played 236 games scored 33 goals
1976–1981 Brighton & Hove Albion played 218 games scored 33 goals

What do you think he ever said to Fabregas at the Emirates to get a face full of phlegm

His interview with Ian Hart after a midweek game live on radio was a classic!
