Such a shame that this has been up an hour and I'm the first person to reply to this thread.
People too busy arguing the toss to pay respects to an ex player. We truly are losing our soul.
A great b/w photo. RIP Gordon.

I remember him playing and was devastated when we sold him to Arsenal - amazing talent

It is a shame Always sad to see ex players like this, I bet he wasn't living like Rooney or Beckham now either and was just a "normal" bloke.

RIP, at least you pulled on a shirt when it meant something, just to pull on the shirt. That applies to all professional football teams not just CCFC.

Gordon, your family can be proud.
