never heard of him.. but anyway... RIP

 

Scored the only goal in the Sunderland v Leeds 1973 FA Cup Final, for Sunderland. 

 

Don't care how old you may be or say you are - how can you not know about that???

 

 

i know who he was, but i don't know who scored goals in other FA Cup Finals before i was born, why would i, or why would anyone else?

 

as for the fella dying, sad for anyone who knew/liked him, i'm sure.

Most people I know who are interested in football tend to know about such things. Things that are part of "football folklore" are well known, and particularly things that are part of local/regional "football folklore" (as in this case) are very well known.

 

I and my friends/family always seem to know about things that happened before we were born (in subjects of interest to us such as football and regional-football particularly) every bit as well as we know about things that we have experienced in the years that we happen to have been alive.

 

I am surprised by these comments to the contrary!!

A lot of the younger fans (and some from outside Newcastle) think that football, and NUFC, was invented in 1992 by Sky, though.

 

Like i say, i know about him, but only because of the north east connection.

 

I wouldn't have a clue about west midlands fa cup heroes of yesteryear, for example - and fans from outside of the north east might well not know about Porterfield.

 

Bet everyone remembers Ronnie fucking Radford though. Wanker.
