….terrific read, thanks Steve. Very talented player was Gerry Humphreys, I always liked young footballers with international schoolboy pedigree in those days.

Great piece,brings back so many memories. Being fined for turning out a weakened side before the FA Cup semi final. ( has that happened to anyone else) Used to see lots of the young players around when they lived in digs. Jimmy Husband was in Tuebrook.

In one of Steve's books their was a bit in there about Gerry asking The Catt for a pay rise - as he had made the first team on occasions - the conversation had me in bulk on how dominant & clver the Catt was - & Gerry never got his pay rise .....

…wowzy, how times changed. I distinctly remember Husband in that great FA Youth Cup winning team of ‘65, Humphreys didn’t play in that one.
