what a top man, much respect they dont make em like that anymore. i might be wrong only caught the end of the pfa, but is it true that the mancs didnt turn up for the awards, if so it just shows how football is losing its soul. ps im slightly drunk. whatever,

Fergie 'banned' the players from going.

I believe he wanted them together for this Barcelona game and not get distracted by the bright lights of London.

But I agree, Armfield is a legend, true analyst of the game

Jimmy Armfield . A true giant of the game. Played for England and Blackpool. Captained England. Managed Leeds to EC Final in 1975. The most eloquent and knowledgeable summariser I've ever heared on radio. Oh yeah................ and also the biggest fan of our club you could ever hope to meet!! He really is !! (you'ld have to be a fan to get that!)

Yes he's fantastic I think. Does he still do 5 Live Super Saturday on BBC ? I grew up listening to Alan Green and Armfield on BBC at the time, when we didn't have LIVE TV as such like today. It was a great time listening to them each saturday night. And we were unstoppable at the time.

Dunphy said he was dead last week on RTE. The rest of the panel were shocked and Giles said he is very much alive. What an embarassment but it was hilarious.
Giles was saying how he took over from Revie but did not have a clue. Much like the Avram Grant situation now.

IIRC he took over from Clough and didn't do too badly bearing in mind Revie's team needed to be rebuilt.

You must remember that time like it was yesterday, no?

I'm sure he did. Giles did not rate him though. Souness was there when Dunphy said this and was cracking up laughing. He loves RTE
