Well, my first football hero, was Bobby Campbell. It was the way he would dive in where the boots were flying to score, and end up in the net with the ball. That hat-trick at Burnden Park, is STILL among my best ever moments as a fan.
But my favourite player of all time…..phew…it’s hard. But I think I’ll plump for Andy Liddell. No game was ever lost, as long as he was on the field, and he always gave 110%. Seems a genuine nice bloke as well, and for someone who had to ask for trials at clubs as a 16 year old, he’s not had a bad career. Our top goalscorer, as well.
