Nice story to share about The Beat 22:38 - Sep 16 with 1269 views | oneoffposter | Not a troll just don't get to many games these days so although I read the site I haven't signed up as can't offer much to debate Anyway I was lucky enough to sit next to the great man 3 1/2 years at home to Watford the day of his 60th - 60 mins in chambers goes down injuried and the crowd stand to a man to clap - 45 secs in Beat turns to me and says 'the fans love him cause he gives his all' at which point I look at clock and realise why they all clapping and tell him what's going on. He jumped up and waved just as the clapping/singing was finishing - i always remember his face when he sat back back brimming with pride with a tear in his eye He was clearly v humbled by the way the true fans (not me as I was sat in the directors box) treated him I only met him a couple of times but he had a vulnerability that was surprising for such a man | | | | |

It appears that he never really lost the innocence that he had when arriving in Ipswich as a 15 year old with his boots in a brown paper bag(as the story goes). It does seem that he genuinely did not realise how good a player he was and how much pleasure that he brought to the lives of so many. | | | |
