    What was the name of that Sarf Ifriken that played for them?

    I ask you as the resident football pervert, la.

    the team I remember was Cooper; Mills, Beattie, Butcher, Osman; Mühren, Thijssen, Wark; Gates, Brazil, Mariner

    Was it Mich D'Avray who came along later - he might have been a Saffa

    Googled it. Colin Viljoen. I can still remember his picture in my Panini sticker book.

    I thought it was very glamorous of them to have a forriner when everyone else was English, Jockish, Welsh or Irish. In Ipswich, of all places.

    edit - He played for England, ffs.

    I could never work out Craig Johnston in this respect. Was he Australian or South African?

    Mills wasn't to be fvcked with as I recall. He also managed the impressive feat of playing top level football while looking about 50.

    He was until recently, on BBC Radio Suffolk every Monday morning, without fail, to stick the boot into Mick McCarthy
