Title: The Prof. Post by: Crozzer on Saturday, November 19, 2005, 02:12:44 Good to see the Prof. getting some recognition.
http://www.thisisstfc.co.uk/Columns_History_Story.asp?NewsID=5 He would get the crowd in the game, especially if we were level or behind with a few minutes to go. I seem to remember, he got a few goals with headers from corners. He always put in a huge effort every game. Title: The Prof. Post by: Reg Smeeton on Saturday, November 19, 2005, 02:19:12 The Prof was in my wilderness years when I lived elsewhere, but I do recall his headed goal on MotD v Shrewsbury...in what must have been the shortest ever clip of a covered game, when the only highlight was him heading in in the 92nd minute. THey may also have shown the kick off.

I should have mentioned I was at that game, but I thought it was Ron Potter who made his debut on that occasion. I think the game ended 6:2. Reg, did we lose 6:2 and was Potter or the Prof. making his debut.

Reg, did we lose 6:2 and was Potter or the Prof. making his debut. Certainly wasn't Ron, who'd been with the club at least 3 or 4 years by then.
