Very saddened to hear that Tony passed away today. He was on one of my hero’s as a kid. Brilliant player, quick and had a rocket shot. Set up both goals in the 74 Trophy final and had time to hit the post.
Met him twice, like a tongue tied teenager couldn’t believe what a quick wit and lovely man he was. Has a great career as a sports teacher in Bolton, and a lethal non league winger.
True Shrimps legend, remember as as 13 year old being gutted when we sold him to Alta, but we need the money apparently.
RIP Tony.
