I interviewed Gordon Banks when I was at the Mercury. I told him my lad played in goal. I didn’t put his response in the story but it was so lovely I transcribed it and gave it to my son. It’s still on his bedroom wall today. God bless you, Gordon Banks x

A year ago this week, they took my dad into hospital. He spent Xmas, alone, in a hospital ward. We weren't allowed to see him. He died a few weeks later. These people made these laws. We stuck to them. They think all of this is a joke. These people are the very worst.
