A very good goalkeeper, tremendously agile and athletic.I rate him not too far behind the great Gordon Banks.

RIP Ron.

Great Keeper of that era...there were a few I remember...Colin McDonald.Alan Hodgkinson and Eddie Hopkinson..all played for England.

Looks like he's holding an upgraded "casey" Mitchell a great advancement from the "Medicine Balls" we had to play with.

RIP, even though he played for our Porcine, darkside neighbours in S6.

Banks understudy.  Great keepers both.  Rather better than our current one on the evidence of tonight.  Though to be fair they both had better defences.

Sad news.  A very good goalkeeper.
From the days when forwards went in on keepers.
