I was at Kings Lynn game. It’s since been said Hill was earmarked for the manager’s job before that game.
Interestingly two players that day went all the way to the top flight George Curtis and Brian Hill, Ronnie Farmer didn’t play but was in and out the side and I think Mick Kearns was injured. All played in the top flight.

The words in the Sky Blue song "while me sing together we will never lose" were believed by everyone who sung during his reign. We thought we were invlncable He made some very ordinary players think they could play and beat anyone/.Shame Robins didn't give him the10 year contract he craved for.

I think he'd be far too old for our playing squad now (though might still be more lethal in front of goal)

I see MR's surname spelt Robbins quite a few times yet when we're talking about Derrick Robbins someone spells it wrong!

I blame age and porter for the missing "r" . O for George Hudson in front of goal.

The Hud was good.
Gould, not so old.
