Interesting Football Facts About Yourself?

Played over 1500 games and I'm starting to feel every single one of them. Holder of the most goals in one season for Leccy; 44 in 1982-83. Anyone fancy beating it? There was some fella who came close once with 42 but that was me! |
P.S - I love watching you lot play so keep up the good work and look after Swiss. He's older than me and Supe!
But 20 years younger than Trev. Love, Macca.
