Elliott played all 3 games in the cup against Man Utd. I think Harvey only paid £10,000 to sign him and he helped to keep them up after they had been second bottom and hammered 6-0 off bottom club Blackpool.Too true regarding Monty. Stan Anderson from Horden Colliery, loved Sunderland and never wanted to leave. Brown forced him out. Joe Harvey really wanted him as a leader and top class right half. A few seasons later we helped them out again selling then Dave Elliott a reserve wing half who excelled in their poor team. Those pathetic useless bastards don’t realise this. Nor how we played them
In a friendly to boost their coffers many years ago.
It was Jim Baxter is better than Eusebio.
And Leeds are in for a thrashing . ( of course )
