He wasn't really a hard man well not compared to the likes of Ron Harris and Mickey Droy he was pretty good on the ball. He came from my neck of the woods Kilburn and as Vesper posted he's been working in mental health for years but nothing forgives that barnet Johnnyeye, Vesper, Starman60 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came from my neck of the woods Kilburn and as Vesper posted he's been working in mental health for years but nothing forgives that barnet My dad was always a fan of his and said he could more than hold his own in that Chelsea defence with Chopper, Webb and McCreadie. I don't think any of them got the sort of reputation that Chopper earned but they were all prepared to stick the boot in when necessary (and probably sometimes when not!). The goal he scored in the Cup Winners Cup final was something else for a centre back. Obviously wasn't alive at the time but I've seen the clips and highlights. That was a great goal.

Vesper 30,185 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Callum Hudson-Odoi makes injury admission after starring role in Chelsea win v Nottingham Forest https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/callum-hudson-odoi-makes-injury-21221764 Callum Hudson-Odoi insisted he has not suffered another injury despite looking in pain at one point during the Blues' 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup. The England international opened the scoring after six minutes with a low drive into the bottom corner and then created the second goal when Ross Barkley tucked in after his shot was saved. Hudson-Odoi missed the end of last season after injuring his Achilles tendon during a game against Brighton , and there were worries for a moment that he could be set for the sidelines again when he went down holding the same Achilles against Forest. But speaking to Chelsea TV Hudson-Odoi said: "As I was walking back the player trod on my Achilles and I felt a bit of pain, but I'm alright now so it's all good. The news will come as a welcome relief to Blues fans, with the youngster looking like getting back to his best following his frustrating spell out.

There were some expectations because in the preliminaries we finished ahead of Russia. It was reported he returned weeks later, with a false beard. Died in 2012 but his name has become associated with dismal football performances. 2004 was different. Under the leadership of German Otto Rehhagel and with very good players. A measure of how good Greece was in 2004 is I think that two of the best ever Greek players, Nikolaidis and Tsiartas, who were instrumental in the preliminaries stopped playing just before Portugal - because they were getting old. They were fielded as reserves in Portugal. But the rest were up to the task. Unfortunately from August 2004 (!) and onwards it's decline again. Under Ranieri we lost to Hebrides-Orkneys what was that team ? Fulham Broadway, Vesper and Johnnyeye 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have liked to hear from one or two of the others and would certainly have liked Lee to ask more interesting questions. Had it in mind to try to get Born is the King going but I had been at Kingsmeadow all morning for Sam Kerr's debut, left there at half time, rushed to the Bridge, was starving so was stuffing my face at the time. Anyway, I'm not the kind of personality that can easily get chants going, especially not in West Upper. Vesper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
