In the boozer last night, a Baggies fan was talking about Tony Brown and what a top goal scoring midfielder he was.
He said he was from Manchester,furthermore Len Cantello was from Manchester and I maybe wrong but I'm fairly sure neither of them played for either us or that lot.
In those days 60's and 70's I thought that our scouts would have had the pick of the local talent and had the best ones boxed off,I know the reds prefered to haunt Scotland and Ulster and apart from Kiddo,and Carlo Sartori,Mancs were very thin on the ground.
John Sheridan of Leeds,Wednesday and Oldham also springs to mind as does Wythenshaw lad made good John (Budgie)Byrne of QPR.
