Spoke to one of the young directors/owners at Cobham the other night who was excited about a new signing coming on board saying he is probably a better player than those we had in the 1970's, which amused me as he really has no idea of that teams qualities and how could he. he wasn't even born then!! I reminded him we had 3- 4 semi pro international's in that team including another from the 70's Andy McCulloch who went on to play for both Brentford and my other team Sheffield Wednesday, as well as appearing in a full under 23's Scotland international team.
I appreciate the enthusiasm and the hard work these youngsters are putting into the team and fully support their efforts in seeing The Mighty Swans rise again with their amazing energy and their refreshing, focused approach but please don't insult Batsfords team and the quality of that squad together with others who wore the badge under Batsford including Johnny Grondola, David Gale, Keith Mead, Chis Gedney, Chris Mullan, Brian Langfield and so many more that are up there with the greats of Amateur football and really were a different level.
