Here is my Referee Footballing team... By Roger Dilkes
Goalkeeper Trevor Simpson Ex Halifax No 1 – The Cat
2 Roger Dilkes Terrier in the tackle at the Dale
3 Clive Wilkes Gloucester’s finest
4 Jack Taylor Wolves butcher
5 Bob Matthewson Bolton stopper
6 Steve Baines Huddersfield, Bradford City & Chesterfield professional
7 John Lloyd Wrexham wizard
8 John Moss Sunderland, Millwall
9 George Courtney Captain of my team, leader
10 Mark Halsey Cambridge City, Hertford Tn
11 Allan Gunn Sussex County, a great ‘lefty’
All these former referees have graced the fields of football in different eras, but whilst they will be remembered for numerous outstanding performances and prestigious appointments over many years, few will be recognised for their former love of the game.
What is yours! More to come.
Thanks
Roger Dilkes
