A family lockdown quiz yesterday, question was ‘ Which Swansea born professional footballer set a world record transfer fee in the 70’s ‘ I didn’t get it and rules are of course no research or questions. It surprised me.
Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.
Unless Johann Cryuff was born in Morriston on the sly I suspect the question may be wrong.

"Eventually left for Birmingham City for £100,000 (breaking the world record transfer fee for a goalkeeper in the process) to play first-team football and regain his place in the Welsh team."
Crikey. Brum had their Clucas moment there. I’m astonished by that.
Before my time Monny, but searched out a documentary on him last night, he wasn’t half bad and seemingly only remembered for his mistakes. 200 clean sheets for Leeds in over 550 games ish. Youngest welsh goalkeeper. Sold a story to the mirror about Revie and Bremner match fixing which was confirmed by many stars of the day. Nothing was done. But then he wasnt sued either.
Revie was england manager by all accounts when the initial allegations broke, he was in the Middle East when it was confirmed by numerous people inc alan ball, Frank Mclintock.

No I remember him. Honestly he was an accident waiting to happen. Still better than Dai Dracula mind.
His allegations were pretty much refuted by most, but they are believable. Unfortunately he was desperate for money when he made them to be paid by the daily mirror, so the motivation is questionable. But when you read of Clough’s bungs and brown paper bags full of cash, who knows. Where there’s money, there’s corruption, and I don’t think for one second football is or was anything but a dirty business.. I think Revie got a terrible press, when on ability and Outcomes he’s up there with Shankly. Certainly Keegan thinks so.

He also refused to repeat the accusations under oath in court either so who knows ?
Ever since my son was... never conceived, because I've never had consensual sex without money involved... I've always kind of looked at you as... a thing, that I could live next to... in accordance with state laws.
