I thought Gynn was massively underrated. A quality player IMO. There appeared to be a number of players in and around that time - borrows, Phillips, Gynn peake - who seemed to fly below the radar of the big clubs for some reason. Good for us though!Just watched the semi final against Leeds. Micky Gynn was a bit of a nutter throwing himself about. Didn’t realise he was involved in all 3 goals. Happy days.
Bit different time though. Phillips got his move to Norwich at a time when he could play for a club who then came third in the top flight, before doing the same at Forest.I thought Gynn was massively underrated.

Yeah, I think players used to stay with clubs longer back then. I guess the pay wasn’t massively different between teams.Bit different time though. Phillips got his move to Norwich at a time when he could play for a club who then came third in the top flight, before doing the same at Forest.
So that's a bit like joining Spurs now, I guess!
He went to Norwich because they promised to play him centre midfield, rather than wide midfield where we used him.Yeah, I think players used to stay with clubs longer back then. I guess the pay wasn’t massively different between teams.
From memory he could pretty much play anywhere. He’d occasionally weigh in with wonder strike too.He went to Norwich because they promised to play him centre midfield, rather than wide midfield where we used him.
Norwich, of course, played him out wide...
He could - he even covered in goal for Plymouth!From memory he could pretty much play anywhere. He’d occasionally weigh in with wonder strike too.
Did we get about £750k for him...might have been £500k?
