We also had Bobby Woodruff years ago, he could really launch them too.

I wondered yesterday, after watching Patterson launch a huge throw to the far side of the Millwall box, if we have the world record on long throwers in the squad.
We have got Gunnar, Mozzer, Halford and now Patterson - all of them with massive throws.
I can think of a couple of other decent long throwers in the Championship (can't think of any now in the Premiership) but no club with two, let alone four.
If nothing else it will feed the myths about Warnock's playing style!

Malcolm MacDonald had a pretty good one as well (long throw that is)
Speaking of long throws, this from Bale is still the best I've ever seen. Got to be 1/3 of the pitch he clears and at the same time plays a perfect through ball assist...

Didn't Andy Legg once hold the world record for the longest throw?
According to the Guinness records. The longest throw-in (football) was 51.33 m (168 ft 4.8 in) by Thomas Gronnemark (Denmark) at the grounds of FC Horsens in Horsens, Denmark, on 18 June 2010.
