Paul Power

[Thomasc]

Integral part of a superb team that won the league. I really can't remember any shockers from Paul Power that season. What I do remember is things like this

Loved that game

 

[COYBL25]

Just like Beardsley, Gough and Martyn, an outstanding player for the club, who we got a little bit too late.

Plus he had that little bit of snide about him, which combined so well with all his other attributes.

 

[Blue 1]

Remember thinking he was an odd signing.

Turned out to be inspired. He was vital to the '87 title-winning side.

 

[Bluebonic]

Was horrified when we signed him, but quickly grw to love the lad! Cracker professional, was genuinely made up when he won a tilte medal with us

 

[royalblue66]

Lovely fella, met him once, and found him very easy to talk to.

 

[T LEAFE]

A true professional.
Always gave 100%
An old fashioned pro. No airs or graces or fancy dans like a lot of modern day primma donnas.

I was at this - Paul Power broke our hearts with 84th minute equaliser and we lost the replay 3-1. City won the Cup that year with the famous Ricky Villa goal.

Imagine the fume today if we signed someone like that? He was awesome for us.

...not an unsung hero for those of us who had the pleasure to watch him. Only here for a short period but very fond memories, he was outstanding for us.

Damn right,mate.

Wasn't he a genuinely clever fella ?
Good degrees etc ?

Or am I thinking of someone completely different ?

That just reminds me how much more I enjoyed football before it was invented by sky. The man on the street has been robbed of so much by the corporations.

Yeah he was a doctor of something as I recall.

The amount of crocks and has-beens Howard signed, he would have been sacked after one window! That is why, regardless of our opinions of individual players, we have to let the manager crack on and meld them into a team!

Ummm I think that was spuds who won the cup with the Ricky Villa goal. One if the most enjoyable finals of my youth, apart from the soft lads from the south winning it.
