Not his first, either, unfortunately.

Good luck, Jim.

An idea isn't responsible for those who believe in it.

Had the pleasure of seeing the great man play for West Ham many years ago. His goal for Spurs v Newcastle I think is one of the best individual efforts you will see. Must be on the tinternet somewhere.

Poll: Will we be relegated ?

Not the place to not pick here, but what you have posted is wrong on both counts, just hope he pulls through, probably one of the greatest strikers this country has produced

You give it out, you take it back it`s all part of the game
Poll: Happy to see Martin go

No argument there. What I posted was irrelevant anyway, so I've deleted it.

The Spurs team he played for in the 60s was outstanding, probably the best football I'd seen until Toshack's 1st season in division 1.

And Greaves was the most brilliant player of them - never forgave Alf Ramsey for leaving him out of the 1966 world cup team and I don't blame him. Had he played I'm sure England wouldn't have needed two dodgy goals and a Russian linesman to win.

I always looked out for their results because eCliff Jones played for them (and they wore white).

GK 1 Pat Jennings
DF 2 Joe Kinnear
DF 3 Cyril Knowles
MF 4 Alan Mullery
DF 5 Mike England
DF 6 Dave Mackay (c)
MF 7 Jimmy Robertson
FW 8 Jimmy Greaves
FW 9 Alan Gilzean
MF 10 Terry Venables
MF 11 Frank Saul
Substitutes:
MF 12 Cliff Jones

How much would that lot cost at today's prices?

Hope he makes a full recovery.

Poll: Should Huw Jenkins step down?

Terry Medwin also.

Tough times don't last. Tough people do.

I was very lucky to watch him play for Tottenham towards the end of his career. A true great of the game. Hoping and praying he pulls through.
