I seem to recall that Bobby Tambling of Chelsea dabbled with the JH's, too. Anyone else remember this?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248139855347807926.post-57910190679011277212012-10-01T11:38:46.432+01:002012-10-01T11:38:46.432+01:00incredible story and one I was never aware of - al...incredible story and one I was never aware of - although I must have heard of him at that time I dreamt of being Peter Osgood and playing for Chelsea, after a couple of seasons with Gillingham of course...<br /><br />However a couple of years later I realised I was no good and anyway when I started at the Grammar School they threw a ball someone had sat on and told me to run with it. From then on I was sold of Rugby Union and briefly made an appearance for Kent in my school boy days before realising that at the higher levels of club rugby it was truly a man's game and I was spending too much time injured to be a regular first team pick. I walked to the stands and have watched from there since - with of course my round ball interest only focused on Gillingham these days... btw we are still some how top of the league!Furtheronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11903753972242964410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248139855347807926.post-28109516330745543362012-09-29T08:30:26.692+01:002012-09-29T08:30:26.692+01:00Still living in Wolverhampton; still trying to con...Still living in Wolverhampton; still trying to convert the likes of you and me.
