What a team Villa had in the early 80 's with him and Peter Withe up front. I can still name the entire side that beat Boro 3-0 in 81 to clinch the league title. I'd struggle to name 3 or 4 from the current side...

Cracking team with Tony Morley on the wing and Sid Cowans pulling the strings in midfield creating chances for Shaw and Withe up front.

I don’t remember him being here but apparently he made five appearances for the reserves in 1989. |

McAvennie played under Gorman in 93/4. The pic above (GWR/Spall) is 89-91. |

Gary Shaw made a few reserve appearances for Town at the end of his career for certain but never got near a contract, he must have been around 30 to 32 at the time. |

Didn’t he have a dodgy knee at the time? |
