Me too. He was one of the main reasons I began supporting Town all those years ago

Definitely join in the birthday greetings.  What a header of the ball!  I reckon STFC missed him almost more than Don Rogers when he left.

I'm a bit too young (something I never thought Id type on this forum) to remember Noble as a Swindon player. However, I do remember him playing forBurnley.

I love watching Cholmondly-Warner style football footage.
That third goal was brilliant.

Remember him for two things :

1) The third goal against Burnley in extra time in the League Cup Semi Final replay at The Hawthorns - we all knew that when that went in we were off to Wembley . He just stood there and grinned !

2) Used to go and sit in the old North Stand and watch the players train during school holidays when I was a kid - he would always be sat in the dugout at the end of training signing autographs and chatting to the kids watching,always had time for us.

A top player for the Town and a top bloke

Happy Birthday Peter
