Scottty, I think you are being either extremely harsh or have misread the thread title here
Keith Holden was an outstanding young prospect who in my humble opinion was neither of Sally's criteria. If I recall he fell in a pot hole whilst playing for us against Swinton at the old Station Road and wrecked his knee and never really recovered.
A potential star for me who suffered rotten luck with injury. |

I told my wife that a husband is like a fine wine; he gets better with age. The next day, she locked me in the cellar.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4729.jpg |

We had a few wingers whom I admired greatly. Notably, Dennis Curling who played in the 1970s on the opposite wing to John Bevan most of the time. He was very quick and elusive as well as sporting a very 1970s 'disco Stu' hairstyle. At the start of the 1980s we unearthed Rick Thackray whom I was convinced would go on to be an all-time great. Think of a British Deny Solomona. He did play for GB Under 21s (including a match at Craven Cottage against the touring Aussies). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yw8q3qf7ZFE but never really fulfilled that early potential. |

I'm sure I've got a shoebox full of tie ups in my loft still. Last time I remember seeing it it has the unmistakable smell of Wilderspool changing rooms. Charming to some, revolting to others!

Seem to recall him getting sent off against us for clothes lining John Atkinson. That, and the hair, stick in the memory. |

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_74166.jpeg |

If I remember correctly he broke his neck at Central Park,got up and played the ball...apparently if he had attempted to run with the balll he would've been paralysed! |
