Thats the one im thinking of Dong :) In regards to Fagan, thats commitment you just dont see anymore. I think some players in our team who dont need to be named could take a lesson from him when it comes to giving it your all and showing your commitment to Rovers, players like Conor O Grady,Raff and even Alan Keane, they all play football because of commitment and sheer passion for the game. I mention Alan keane because injuries simply arent stopping him from playing, hes already a favourite in my eyes and has been a great replacement for Coleman.
I was lucky enough to see Ski McGee in action for Rovers when he returned towards the end of his career. He must have been 38/39 years old but what skill and touches. He couldn't run too much at that stage but boy could he play!
AH Fago always loves to hear about the winner he scored against Shams in '83 and made them cry.
Ye reds!
Can anyone tell me what was Fagos regular number when playing for Rovers?
Wore No.4 in the 83 cup final.
But I know he also wore No.10 at times.
Played with Harps for a while towards the end of his career!Quote:

While playing for QPR Ski featured in an episode of Minder when they filmed a number of scenes at one of their games.Quote:
