[Mamyalynne]

His passing is sad, though a good age a great footballer and a great family friend to me in my early years, sadly missed.

thought that was wood

[DrFilth]

sorry you are right

[Mamyalynne]

I would never defend an act of that nature, even by someone I cared about.

Truth to say, I doubt he would appear in a top 10 list of 'dirty' players of that era. Saint he was not.

wood was injured in the 57 final, a collision with peter mcparland
