And Dave Mackay who, after all, won us the top division.
And, no, it wasn't all Clough's team. The great man also said Mackay was not given enough credit.
Hard act to follow Clough and, especially, to cut through the turmoil at the club.
I wasn't happy at the time - I just wanted Clough back - but, now looking back, I think Mackay did an amazing job.

And a few more !

So glad you're feeling better B4.
Yes, we go again.
Be interesting to see what Warne does in the summer.
Then, hopefully, let's go for the autos. Playoffs are too stressful.

Think you have forgotten Arthur Cox 🤔

Narrow it down...."an amazing opportunity elsewhere" could be anywhere away from Stoke.

His record is pretty good..

Skeg 2nd eleven?

I think these figures are excellent but only go so far to demonstrate  the value of the academy.
This is because you also have to factor in every minute any of those players have played for the first team, where we have saved having to buy someone else in to do their job. 
Hughes and Hendrick nearly got us promoted, Bogle likewise and the value of those young lads who have kept us going on the pitch these last two seasons has been tremendous.
I know we pay them a wage, but it will probably have been modest by comparison to bought players.

Why, has he got his car keys in his trunks pocket?

This didn't quite work out.
