So sad to read the demise of another great past player, who contributed a huge amount to the great 58/59 FA cup run and was one of the original” Terrors.” Similar to DC, I have very happy memories of those cup games. Alan was an inside forward in the Tony Slade mould, together they provided the engine room of the team. I would also like to send my condolences to his family, and for all the excitement and pleasure Alan provided at his time with club.
Jeff B, thank you in your efforts for providing information on these past great players. Are Brian Bennett and Albert Grainger still the only players who survive today?
