Chris Nicholl, former Villa, Southampton and Norn Iron centre-half. Scorer of an absolute thunderb*****d in the 1977 League Cup Final.

 

The second replay of the cup final 

What a time to be alive.

That compilation of Bowles features genuinely some of the worse goalkeeping I have ever seen. Kids playing in full size goals are better than some of those men.

Bowles would train pre-match, go into dressing room & put trainers on.

He'd be last out & appear just before kick off.

Everyone thought it was a superstition, but the reality was that he'd ran out of the ground to the bookies, put a bet on the horses, run back, boots on and out, nicely warmed up.

Ernie Tagg [Bowles’s manager at Crewe] gave the funniest yet most tragic quote about him: ‘If Stan Bowles could pass a betting shop like he can pass a football he’d be a rich man.'
