[Crook Mackem]

Read his autobiography last week on my hols.

Absolute legend, some class stories in it.

Any of you old timers see him play in the flesh back in the black and white days

Seen him a good few times and yes he was fucking mint, If that's the same book that I've read, did you notice the only player he mentions (at the time of writing the book) with praise, is Marco Gabbiadini
reckons he's the most skilful player of that era.

He was sheer magic of the highest order.
