A very accurate assessment of Big Mick in the hoops, St! A few years back, when Mick was manager at Wolves we went down for a family weekend in Manchester. We happened to be staying at the same hotel as the Wolves team who were playing Man City. As you do, me & the wee man collared Mick for a selfie & hearing our accents enquired as to our allegiancies. I told him what a legend he is! After the game he met up with his Mrs & another middle aged couple for a quiet meal on a Saturday night. Few would have any idea that this quiet, family man was probably THE hardest defender bar none in England & Scotland in the late 80s. Remembering his spat with Roy Keane at the 2002 World Cup there’s no doubt whose side I’d have been on!
