Yes he is my hero/namesake and my birthday the 26th of this month ! to me our greatest goalkeeper in my time without Monty we would not have been promoted 1964 or won the F A cup, and born here.
Happy birthday Monty will never forget the 73 double save against Leeds world class then some, have a great day
Not JUST a legend for THAT SAVE, he holds the record for the most appearances. And in his capacity as a Club Ambassador he has been know to get a standing ovation at St James Park, from Our Friends to the North. And he's the only former player I can think of who has won a European Cup, winners medal. A very happy Birthday to him.
