Appearances
from Millwall at Chicago Sting Chicago Sting were coached by Bill Foulkes and it was he who got the word to Old Trafford and said that he recommended that you know I'd take a look at him you're quite right Jimmy Murphy went to watch him play I think they were Millwall were at Tramier and he'd seen enough after 30 minutes he walked out and just said he's definitely you know he's left foot he's like a dream or something like that I think that's what he actually said to Jimmy Murphy Jr.
He went to the throstle's nest to meet Jimmy Murphy Jr.
after watching Golden play.
He got home in time for the last bell to get a pint in.
And he said, I've seen a player tonight.
He's a dead cert.
And he was still feeling quite marginalised by the club.
And Jimmy Murphy Jr.
remembered him saying, I don't know why I shouldn't bother because the club don't seem to bother about me.
And his son said to him, you will bother because you're a man of too much integrity.
And apparently he actually walked straight to the phone box and told Tommy to sign it and not sleep on it because other clubs were going to go in for him.
And they were going in for him.
And
And, yeah, that advice proved fateful because United signed him.
And, yeah, he was a left-winger who played with freedom, played with liberation, and genuinely, on talent alone, could be regarded as one of the club's greatest, but fate and fortune wouldn't work out that way.
But an incredible record, as you can see there.
I said earlier, 51 goals, 134 appearances all told, and...
a goal ratio similar to that of Cristiano Ronaldo, and he never played in the front line as well.
He would go there, don't get me wrong, but never played as an actual out-and-out striker.
Brings us to the other midfielders.
