the belfast boy

how could i forget? i've furtively edited my last blog and added late remembered people, places and events but the best just slipped my mind. age, what have you done to me? i was in windsor park when he scored a legitimate goal out of banksies hands; i was there when he was sent off against scotland for chucking turf at the ref; i was there when he played with bobby moore at fulham; i was there when he played for rangers against chelsea in a testemonial. he was the best. how could i forget?
