"Far Cough 6:12 Sun Mar 31 Yes, Hately flopped at the rent boys. He was a tall centre forward and playing with a team with no wingers. But he made several big money moves after that and was a dead loss everywhere he went ."

Tomas Brolin Maybe I'm being unfair but he was on fire after the 1994 WC and later got injured. Came to Leeds and essentially stopped training.

Nicholas was a seriously good player. Picked the wrong club both us and the totts would have suited him better than boring arsenal which is exactly what they were back then .
