My own not very vivid recollection was that Jock Dodds was not that great. Remember however he came as a successor to Dixie Dean who in turn was
followed by b Tommy Lawton, in my opinion the two greatest No. 9's we have ever had. Any Centre forward we had bought at that time was on a hiding to nothing

Dead right Gavin and he made 58 apps and scored 37 goals the other 3 apps and 1 goal being in the FA Cup

Believe it or not i think Steve simonsen's £3.3m was a record for a stopper! As was Paul Gerard at £1.5m! Makes T-How's £4m look like a bagain doesn't it?

I don't think he was signed from Shamrock Rovers. I think that lad was signed from Blackpool, and was known as Jock Dodds.
