He'd get sent off every other game nowadays - with his trademark sliding tackles.

Those series of games where we always seemed to be playing Pompey in the 70s (?) used to be fiercely contested.

Great stuff!
I still remember one of his brilliant sliding tackles when we were in the old 3rd division on a wet afternoon when he slid about 20 yards and still won the ball and then in the same move got up to his feet with the ball and pssed a great pass that set up a goal. He probably wouldnt have got away with it these days due to the fact that he started his slide from so far away even though his timing was impeccable.

My Uncle used to drive the team bus in the 70's, and he was telling me stories about this last weekend.

Whilst doing that he told me Kammy was a perfect gentleman, he got on really well with him....

His autobiography is a decent read. Some good tales from his town days.

Kammy lives in Wakefield these days doesn't he? Not sure where his family are though.

Kammy will always be a legend and one of my favourite all time players.

Double of Phil Lynott the Thin Lizzy Front Man so another bonus from an ageing Rocker. (enter OST Wink)

Glad you've added the word 'ageing' to your CV. You did however forget to precede it with 'dirty, greasy....' Wink

Love the Kammy though - a true legend. Cool

One of my favs, too - but tbh he always seemed to prefer Pompey to us

Loved how on Sky Sports News during the Swindon - Leeds game he was referring to Swindon as we despite playing for both clubs  Smiley
