Ted MacDougall!
That's a blast from the past. He was a prolific scorer for most teams he played for.

I was looking at the teams - Tony Currie & Alan Woodward in the Sheffield United team.

MacDougall was a prolific goalscorer - and I didn't mention the Norwich manager.

And the answer nobody could get in the 70s pub question: name three flowers who have been leading scorer for ManU. Dennis Violett, Bobby Charlton(he had a rose named after him) and Mr MacDougall.

It’s better spoken than written.

Currie & Woodward were both cracking players. Didn't Woodward have a big beard? More common nowadays, but not when he was playing.
As for the Norwich manager not being mentioned, why spoil a decent article?

Never saw Woodward with a beard. Trevor Hockey had a belter and was at SheffU early 70s.

It was Hockey with the beard, Woodward had grey hair.

That's right, Hockey! Getting 'em mixed up!

Mick McGuire is now a ref assessor and a school buddy of mine accompanies him to most of his matches. Lucky devil, top seats and babied all day.
