    The ,most dangerous place was in the stands to the side and above the goalposts.

    My season ticket was in that corner and you would have to see it to truly believe it.

    I remember one game he didnt hit the target once, the longer it went on the harder he was trying and worse he was getting. He cleared the net behind the goal twice, and eventually when the keeper and rest of the players went in he rolled one into an empty net and the Canton Stand let out a massive ironic cheer which although funny at the time was not a great sign really for an 8m signing on 45k a week!!!!

    Some of Whitts finishing in those drills was a joy to watch, better than all of our strikers at the time only Bellamy ran him close.
