I always quite liked him & Greavesy on the telly so perhaps remmeber him more fondly for that than his time as our manager.
Condolonces to his family, I remember his daughter being a regular in my Emsworth local.
Agreed. Probably a lost cause managing Pompey at that time and yes he gave a few youngsters a go. They weren't very good were they even by the standards we have to watch today!! Saint & Greavesy was a good watch. RIP
Turned Steve Foster into a centre half and he turned out OK, but you're right the rest did n't set the world alight.
So he did! I was forgetting Fozzie. Yes, he wasn't bad at all.
