Billy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
People forget that he had an ok career with Stoke before coming to us. Big signing at the time. Another Gerry Francis spot.

Also watched Phil Purnell on the same show the other week,brought back some great memories

That's right, and wasn't he a full back there before Gerry turned him into a striker ? kind of. but a bit of a misnomer I think. One of those quirky 20% true titbits that make a signing into even more of a 'legend'. he was clearly a striker, but not getting games for Stoke and from my memory the story was that he was playing in their reserves where they sometimes used him at the back. It's a bit like thinking Virgo was a striker or Kenneth was a winger because of a few games  |

To be honest I'm enjoying this season more than any other in a long time. It's great just to have that good feeling back regardless of what division we're in. |

It seemed to me that they got a gas legend in and spend 90% of the time talking to him about City??..

I quite like the subs bench actually feels pro rovers to me if anything.
