Dixie Dean & Tommy Lawton who he knew was his replacement yet always gave him advice & they both respected one & other they never played upfront much together though - the club left Dixie on 449 appearances then sold him -

Nice watch BobbyBally 1970 Mexico innocently shopping -
Bally never hit the heights playing there as they were a long ball team plus he had a lot of resentment from his co players as the perks & wages he was on back then - Southampton got the best out of him IMO - like Bobby Collins should never have been sold -
Geoff Barnett was a solid keeper for them too in that photo - replaced Bob Wilson who coached him up .....
….Barnett only played 49 times for Arsenal. He covered when Wilson was injured (inc the FA Cup final) but never replaced him.
He was a very good keeper sadly behind West , Rankin - West was a top international keeper as was Rankin on his day but always had an error in him - I watched Barnett in that youth cup run in in the home games - what a great youth team that was - I sadly missed the Final as the semi final the Liverpool Corporation buses went on a lightning bus strike - My older brother got me home late - & strict parents stated thatch it your not taking him to a night game until I got older - as I was late for school the day after ... doh
