Pop Robson the oldest striker aged 38 ever to score for the Lads. A very fit and agile player his wife was a ballet teacher and apparently had him do ballet exercises.

I saw him playing for West Ham against the mighty Leeds in 1974. He scored a typical Robson flying header with the Hammers turning out 3 -0 winners. Brooking and Best scored the other goals. It was one of the most memorable games I have been to.
