Me too.Really good to see Tommy make his debut at the age of 18 years. It just occurred to me that I saw his grandad, Glyn Pardoe ,make his debut at the age of 15. Bloody Hell I really am an old fart.
Born in 1971 and 1972 respectively, so there is no real reason for them to know about Glyn and Mike, I know Mike played into the 80's but he wasn't with us after 1978. I'm 58 but I don't remember many footballers from when I was 7 unless they played for City (or were internationals).Annoyed me that last night when he came on the commentators mentioned his 2 grandads having played for us.
Neither knew who they were
McPointy then said, that both must be so proud.
Imagine if it was the grandson of 2 liverpool players, never mind legends.

The correct terminology is FOC. Join the club - free membership.Really good to see Tommy make his debut at the age of 18 years. It just occurred to me that I saw his grandad, Glyn Pardoe ,make his debut at the age of 15. Bloody Hell I really am an old fart.
True, but they at least should know that they are no longer with us.Born in 1971 and 1972 respectively, so there is no real reason for them to know about Glyn and Mike, I know Mike played into the 80's but he wasn't with us after 1978.

If they don't know of them in the first place, why would they know that ? They probably only researched Tommy last night when his name appeared on the team sheet.True, but they at least should know that they are no longer with us.
