YAWN! I've told you an experience I had with a legend of the club, you don't believe me, fair enough. I don't need to justify myself to someone behind a keyboard. Have a good day sunbeam

Bah humbug - to turn off the snow, visit your preferences and select a style that isn't Christmas.

Yeah, and it was in his twilight years too. He was amazing
aye mate, still doing the business in the later years of his career.
When we won the cup against the mancs and he was getting interviewed after the game and they were saying I bet it was one of his best performances and his face was like "you kidding, that was a quiet day at the office".
The greatest goalie EVER . That is all that needs saying .

That bloody divot at Lansdowne Road cost us the double in 1986 imho,Bobby Mimms was a decent back up keeper but he was no Nev,mind you who was?
Never seen a keeper work so hard in a pre match warm up. As far as I can remember, he was usually the first player out and the last to leave before the kick off, which is why his kit was well soiled before they even started, adding to his 'bin man' legend.
This was in the days, of course, before organised 5-a-side style warm ups etc. (don't think Lineker even bothered coming out, preferring a warm bath as his pre match warm up).
Oh, and please chaps, no more mention of that Joe H..(can't even bring myself to write his name in full) in such a revered thread. Thank you.

Yeah remember it was a surprise if a forward beat him esp one on one.
Best I've ever seen
Class above Shilton who only got the coverage in 80s cos played for england
I agree, although if you read Nev's book (which I recommend folks) he claims Mimms was decent and didn't do much wrong.
I suppose Mimms was a good goalie, he just suffered due to not being Neville Southall.

yep,agreed groucho,however although we didn't exactly collapse(the other lot went on an unbelievable run)and you couldn't really apportion blame to mimms,I'm convinced with Neville there we would have seen it through pretty comfortably to the title,the cup final may have been another thing though as the extra terrestrial they had up front was the only fella who had ours and nevs numbers,doh!

The thing i noticed watching the video is his awareness of both his position and the size of the goal..
The amount of times he tips the ball just round the post or over the cross bar is immense
