Maybe inferior is a too strong word, but i'd rather have Spruce or Withers if i could rewind the clock a few years.

Agree with you there RE . . . . . :THINK: although whilst they were both good in their own right, neither IMHO, were good enough to lace the boots of :BOW: Sir Keith :BOW:

And Webb. A terrible shame he suffered those injuries as he was absolutely top class.

Well said, I agree with you there. I wouldn't give Brent Webb the steam off of "Sir Kieth's" (as you refer to him) pis$

Webb is the best attacking full back of the lot. However his defence & attitude are crap at times. Things you wouldn't accuse the others of.

I loved watching Watto but I can't forgive the sending off that was instrumental in us losing to Leigh and so not winning the title in 92/93.

Its because McAvoy passed on those dodgy pictures of McBanana and Hood to Platt when he left the club.

Seriously. Apparently Tony SMith has copies as well. The word is that he passed a photocopy to Macca when televised during the World Cup to reign him in from blaming Smith for the poor showings and Leeds bias in the team. McBanana tried to cover his shame by vigourously colouring in his face to prevent identification. I know this because Nero's uncle was sat behind and saw the pictures and recognized MacBananas superfluous third nipple that wasn't quite blotted out. :WHISTLE: :WHISPER: :LIAR:
