Great stuff - especially for we re-cycled teenagers who can remember the sixties (and before) keep 'em coming. Is there enough info available about my particular favourite, the one & only Tony Leighton, to include him in your biogs? Obviously not available by direct interview as a lot of your others seem to be but I assume you have access to more info than the average guy in the street. Just my brief unbiased summary of his career at Town: He played for about 15 years and scored more goals than Roy Race - that's in my rose coloured rear view mirror!  On looking up the records it turns out he actually played 90 games over a three years period scoring 40 goals - so much for rear view mirrors. But I recall a harum-scarum approach with limited concern for his own well-being much beloved among Town fans at the time. This is, looking at the lists of Town Greats on another thread, a commodity more prized by town fans than the effete skills of Gorre, Messi & Ronaldo.  We love 'em to "get stuck in" UTT |
