I agree about the clamour for the League Cup. When I get chance I might try and dig out the newspapers from that era - pretty certain the MEN/Pink fuelled the idea of a comeback.I remember the clammer to get him in the LC final team in '76.
The reserve game had a massive crowd just before the final as rumours were knocking about he was going to play in it.
We really didn't look after him when injured at all. It would have been a disgrace for any player let alone arguably the best player in the country at the time.
