Tommy Hutchison's Birthday (2 Viewers)

[bringbackrattles]

Tommy Hutchison 73 today. Is he our best ever player ? What a signing he was and was a fans favourite and club legend. Loved it when he'd beat a defender, and go back and do it again !
So our greatest ever player, got to be up there. ⚽️

He is the best Coventry player that I have ever seen. Luckily for us we had him in the era before freedom of movement.

Gibbo was some player and saw him score some great goals for us.

Wouldn't fit in our 361 formation... Would prefer Liam Walsh.

Only joking... What a player! If he is not our best ever, then he is definitely in the conversation... And would be in my best 11.

Simply the best!

Best player I've ever seen in a sky blue shirt.
No one else even came close.

Dublin was good, Speedy was good,
Nuddy and Hucks were exciting.
Gerry Francis and Nielson were quality etc etc

But Tommy Hutchison was different gravy!

 

[RegTheDonk]

He was the one person I recall of that eara (I was still in primary school) that lit the crowd up by just receiving the ball. My worse memory of Hutch was sitting with my dad, who was fairy well pissed up, shouting "show us some magic Tommy" and nearly falling over his seat.

Happy birthday Hutch.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Not old enough to have seen him play but sounds like he was sure something.

I have however seen covcity4life's work on this forum and it's something to behold so Happy Birthday covcity4life.

Oh, and you Tommy.

Happy Birthday Tommy.

What a crap thread. 19 posts and no-one has called him Tommy Hutchinson yet.

Is there any footage at all of Hutch playing? Always sad I missed what was clearly a sky blue legend.

Go to YouTube type in Tommy Hutchison and loads there. Great player and worth watching.

 

[andrew.roberts]

He used to help us training when I played for President Kennedy's, must have been in the late seventies. Nutmegged him in a game and he was none to happy about it for a few seconds... All in all a lovely bloke and a fine player

They’re both legends

There’s no known footage.

The cameras couldn’t keep up.

 

[oscillatewildly]

Always a joy when he comes back for Legends Days - Spends loads of time chatting, signing and posing for pics.

 

[joemercersaces]

‘Dazzle, Tommy, Dazzle’ would go the roar. Best ever.

 

[Winny the Bish]

My dad bloody loves Hutchison. Every time we’d sign a winger he’d say “I bet he’s no Tommy Hutch”

He’s been right so far

 

[tommydazzle]

Naturally the best..

got a photo somewhere of when I met the great Hutch, Willie Carr, Bill Glazier and Jimmy Hill.

He was from a bygone era. Modern coaches would take a lot out of players like him - the likes of him Currie and Bowles were maverick footballers. He was focussed on attack and that was him. The most successful season of course was when Graydon played on the other wing. Total contrasts as players but a perfect match

Happy Birthday Tommy, thanks for the memories. True legend.

Burnley always been Burnley

Lots of old familiar faces in this cli. It’s funny to see David Cross. I remember going to Norwich when he played for them. He tried an overhead kick, hit himself in the face and ended up with a bloody nose. We made fun of him for the rest of the game. We signed him a week later

I remember his overhead kick on the goal line at Upton Park that stopped us going to Wembley
