    Yeah Waddle was the only other I could think of. World class may be a bit of a stretch for him mind. He had quite a bit of impact for us didn't he?

    The daft thing about Waddle was he was a lifelong Sunderland fan who was ignored by our youth set-up (sound familiar) and ended up being signed by them up the road. He eventually realised his dream of playing for SAFC, but by then he was well past it and a panic signing by Reidy in a desperate attempt to keep us up.

    (and yeah, world class might be pushing it, but in his pomp he was a bloody good player)
