I always think of that daft twat who used to sing in Idols - Alevis Broon - whenever someone mentions Mike Neville 'Yee look like a Geordie ... waak like a Geordie ... taak like a Geordie ... but I got wise; you're Mike Neville in disguise, oh yes you are, Mike Neville in disguise' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from the appearance of KK, Waddle, Beardsley and Gascoigne, 1977-92 were the drabbest years in our history. The club had no money and the boardroom divided, traditional industry shutting down with resulting sky high unemployment, decrepit stadium, hooliganism and racism rife, plummeting attendances. Still better althan the Ashley years of torpor and torture... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you mean but oddly those times we had our 3 best players in succession with Waddle, Beardsley and Gazza. Next in line Bogie sadly didn’t live up to the hype… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beardsley was the better player, mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 (edited) Standing in the Gallowgate at home to Villa, can’t remember the year, Beardsley shuffle at the edge of the area and drilled into bottom corner, best player in my lifetime bar none.

Thought of that one but think he must've been talking about an earlier one. Was the Gallowgate still standing while they were working on it the earliest PL seasons? I know his son wasn't born yet during his 80s spell. Edited January 24 by Superior Acuña Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 My favourite player ever seen live, that goal against Brighton (?) from the edge of the box man. Not keen on some of his behaviour and its a shame but the best IMO obvs, player I've seen regularly, loved HBA but Pedro for me like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beardsley was the better player, mind. Beardsley > … If he had a better PR team and better looks you are probably talking about one of if not the greatest English player we’ve seen in his position. Genius is overused these days but Beardsley was a genius. Criminally ignored by the southern press as the blab on about the likes of Zola (who had similar traits as a player and person) and Di Canio. Neither could tie his shoe laces. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
