Quote: Pemps "He was injured at the time of Iro catching him. there's no way Iro would be within 10 yards of him in a foot race. I don't remember anyone catching him in a straight race. I've seen people come across the field and tackle him, but they had a head start distance wise.
Mark preston was close to him for pace.'"
Agreed, nobody caught him from behind if he was fully fit. I remember Kevin Iro and Andy Mason running him down, but that was later in his career when he had started to fade, injuries and weight gain slowed him right down.
