Your idols growing up

Lucky to witness the end of Danny's career but soon as I saw young McStay was mesmerized by his skills n understanding of the game. Injured meself more than once trying to copy things he done?
Lothar Matteus n the incredible Maradona were massive inspirations also
a tried a Cruyff turn at football the other night n nearly broke ma ankle ?

Goalies were my heroes.

Peter Latchford was my first until he leaked 5 at Dens. Big Paddy was my real idol though......used to save penalties for fun when he first broke through.

Soft spot for a lesser-known Celt, Roy Baines, who gave me a pair of Sondico gloves when he was at Morton.

The Maestro and TB were my favourite outfield players, also tip a nod to Chic-Nick before he contracted foot-in-mouth disease
He also had a bad case of "wit-ye-dain-wi-that-earring-yafuckwit" as well.
