I reckon there was well more without tickets than with. I walked up from the black horse about 11am and the flow of people was 20 to one walking away from the ground than up to the ground. Took about 15 minutes just getting up Spellow Lane coz...
He didn't speak to the press at all in the early days, or give interviews, I remember he did one to Everton TV on video which was a shock
Tbh it's odd you are denying his rights to be a hero, I wouldn't think of doing the same for anyone who...
I rated a lot of players from that era, kanchelskis, amo, even rhino
But Dunc has charisma and mysticism about him, he was also a player that every club hated playing against and he scored some iconic goals
He was a good looking, tall centre...
Totally agree, one of the issues he had at ICT was a few fans shouted abuse at him. He even states it in his book it was about 5 of them, but that was enough for him to change his behaviour.
Just imagine if he had been full time manager here...

Finished reading it and my thoughts are:
It could have been a lot shorter if we take out the repeated words such like
Explaining his dad is tough, hard man, a working man. We got it Dunc the first time!
Retro bar and Matthew street
Saying he...
Dunc was a big hero of mine as a 90s teenager, part of the mystery being he never gave interviews and was before the internet/social media
I'm about half way through and you get the sense he was a kind hearted lad but was easily influenced and...
Nah no way mate, 95 itself was insane, helping us stay up, the Derby then going and winning a trophy - hero stuff. He was one of the best in the league in his first stint, he was unplayable just before he moved to Newcastle, i actually think...
