Hi
Bob,
You
probably think that I am being extremely pedantic,
but wasn't the Portugese skipper in '66, Mario Coluņa? It's not easy to see
from the photo (see photo) whether it was him
or Eusebio shaking hands with Bobby , please look
into it and let me know if it is Coluņa or Eusebio
in the picture. Thanks a lot mate
and congratulations for a terrific site.

Well I've
looked at the picture and it doesn't look like Eusebio to
me, so I'll go with Coluņa. Thanks for
that. Far from seeing this as being pedantic, I love
getting corrections. 1966 is before my first hand memory,
so I'm generally relying on information given to me,
which is not always right. Thanks also for the comments
about the site.

Hello,
Just found your website just by typing Ken Wagstaff.
My Dad, Paul Ellis, often talks about Waggy. My Dad
was very talented as a full back in Shirebrook and
Langwith and had trials with Notts County etc., but
the thing he often said to me as I was growing up is
what a superb player WAGGY was.
I'm now 40 myself and always follow the Stags, but me
and Dad often think about Ken and what he would be
worth in today's money, today's spoilt, so called
superstars, with the million pound values aren't in
the same class.
A true legend, a true gentleman and he never forgets
Shirebrook and Langwith.

Waggy gets
more email about him than any other player on the
site (with George Best as the only possible exception).
And everyone has good to things to say about him, which
is really great, also. As you say a true legend.
Kevin
Hector (King Kev) (Derby County) is now working as
a postman in Derby, sad really when you think this
guy could of been a national hero if someone wouldn't
of cleared his shot off the line after he came on as
a sub against Poland in that vital World Cup
qualifier in 73.

Quite so ! Though in
this weather, our postal workers are all heroes, as far
as I'm concerned.
