Good shout for Wanchope. He could be frustrating and inconsistent but was terrific on his day.

Yep, they tried to cover it up by selling at Christmas. I went to MR for one of the xmas games and the old fogies were livid.I agree about Wagstaffe. He was just reaching his peak when City sold him. He became a club legend for Wolves.
Imagine what a forward line of Summerbee, Bell, Lee, Young and Wagstaffe would have achieved!
The circumstances of his move left a bad taste as it appeared to signal the start of a ‘sell anyone who can attract a transfer fee’ phase. Fortunately the Board did a rethink and shortly afterwards signed Johnny Crossan.
I was dragged by my parents to the grandparents in Shropshire for Christmas. I got the supporters bus from Oakengates to Molyneux on Boxing Day to see them announce their new signing: David Wagstaffe.
Crossan did really well for us, but he was nearing the end of his career and didnt last long.
I believe they were lined up by Hollywood to be the new Marx brothers.Paulo wanchope. Him, huckerby and the goat were an unbelievable trio
Good call, Paulo was a great watch, worth the admission money alone, hugely entertaining and a very good player.Paulo wanchope. Him, huckerby and the goat were an unbelievable trio

Remember that goal I think it was against Preston at home when he pinged one in from right off the upright at the North stand.
