Remember (sort of) back in the 60's (I think) we had a little winger called Dave Corbett.Well, the game I saw,he was taking all the corners and he landed at least 2 of them on the crossbar,as a young lad I was most impressed :oops:

Don Hutchings did not cross very often, was more inclined to cut in and go for goal, often successfully. Barrie Jones is more worthy of consideration as a crosser, (is there such a word)?

Sorry,being lazy here but was Barrie Jones a club record signing at the time at 45,000 quid (if memory serves me.)Exciting winger and I was there for his home debut. :mrgreen:

So was I, V Ipswich if memory serves. It was not only an Argyle record, but a British record for a winger. The other under consideration was Francis Lee who according to his book wanted to come here at the time.
