Frank Worthington for Terriers against City in 69/70.
Re: Greatest forward, you’ve ever seen
Personally saw? Live?
Well, being as I was stuck at Ninian Park in the late '60s and early '70s, it would have to be John Toshack, although I did see Rodney Marsh once in Toronto in the late '70s playing for someone against the old Toronto Blizzard. He scored a fine goal that night.
Saw Alan Warboys score four in one game.
Does that count?

always gave a gutsy performance
Re: Greatest forward, you’ve ever seen
If you mean Greatest players seen live probably Messi and original Ronaldo.
Best performance or the performance of a striker I seen that sticks in my mind was Cantona, just remember watching him thinking I’ve never seen anyone perform like this, it looked so easy but he just completely controlled the game.
Re: Greatest forward, you’ve ever seen
Gavin Gordon’s five goal romp against Rushden & Diamonds was a striker masterclass:hehe:

I'm going to take a wild guess and say that GERD is something you've suffered from?
Having had a rare condition called achalasia of the cardia, I'm very familiar with the term GERD.
I'm also at an age whereby I can also remember "Der Bomber" himself during his playing days. :thumbup:
Re: Greatest forward, you’ve ever seen
Saw this bloke playing for Moscow Torpedo against City in 1968 - Russians of a certain age would tell you he's the best I've seen in the flesh, but I'd pick George Best, Rivaldo, Jimmy Greaves and Aguero among others in front of him.
