[LU] A question for the older folk on the list
The passing of Dave Mackay has led to that famous photo of him grabbing a young Billy Bremner's shirt being all over the internet today. But does anyone on the list know what young Billy had done to provoke such a reaction? I'm assuming it was some sort of rash tackle.

I think Dave Mackay had just came back from a knee injury or something like that, and Bremner had gone in with a 'robust' tackle in that general area. >From what I heard Mackay knew exactly what Bremner had done and was letting him that. :) -- Mick Cooney mickcoo...@gmail.com ___ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org John 'Grampa' Sykes Rest In Peace old lad 28th Oct 1938 - 12 Nov 2013 MARCHING ON TOGETHER
