Re: City keepers over the years
Does anyone remember that an Australian kid played for us for one game only as all our other keepers were injured. I believe he played the day he was signed as an emergency and the bloke was here on holidays at the time. He was garbage by the way and never played for us again.

Agent Dimi now with Hartlepool - and according to Jeff Stelling it was his mistake that handed Harrogate Town victory this afternoon in the FA Trophy. He's had an interesting career!
Re: City keepers over the years
Marshall was the most incredible shot-stopper but avoided challenging for high balls to an embarrassing degree.

Ron Healey for me. In my memory he seemed to be ever present for many years in the 70's - anyone have any stats for him?
Re: City keepers over the years
Just watching the Rangers game and have to say I thought McGregor was a solid enough keeper for us.

If you are on about season '75/76 it's the home game v Halifax (September '75 or thereabouts) that sticks in my mind. Lowly Halifax were by far the better team that day. Ron Healey saved our blushes including saving a penalty at the Grange End of the ground. We looked hopeless and at that early stage of the season looked like mid table no hoppers, instead of the great team that ended up marching on to promotion.

Merci.....my own favourites.....beside Maurice Swan.....Dilwyn John, debut at 17 (those were the days...) and Fred Davies..then Bill Irwin...
