Re: Congratulations John McGreal

Genius signing by SC. We only got him I think because we offered him a longer deal than Ipswich did, but it was an inspired signing.

Re: Congratulations John McGreal

Signing John McGreal enabled Steve Cotterill to sign enough others for a team!

Playing alongside John McGreal dramatically improved a young Gary Cahill.

I was privileged to present John Mac with his PFA player of the month award, on the pitch at Turf Moor. I have the picture!

I agree that when a push or clip, makes it impossible to retain balance, or prevents onward control, it is a penalty.
