« on: August 24, 2008, 11:20:29 PM »

the man  is pure class (and i fear the last of a dieing breed of footballer)

From the main site:

In NL Today, chairman Geoff Goodwin responds to queries about Colin Little. "Let me make the situation crystal clear. Colin Little is Altrincham Football Club... Clubs are wasting their time if they think they are going to lure him away from us. He will tell them straight, I know this for a fact. He won't even consider going... he's so committed to this club that I went to Colin not so long ago and told him there was a chance we couldn't afford him for the next season. Do you know what he did? He laughed and just said, 'Of course, you can afford me. Just give me whatever you can; I don't mind'. This man is not money-motivated, pure and simple. He is staying here... he will be the league's top scorer this season, mark my words... when you have the quality of the players we've added like Lee Elam... I don't consider us a dead cert for the drop, whatsoever."

Colin is a true legend.

Bit brazen of Geoff to say he will finish the leagues top scorer mark my words though!

Then again i've just realised it was a quote from the NL Paper, which means he probably didn't even say that!

I thought the 'cote was Altrincham FC?

I'm baffled but very encouraged by Colin's words...if he ever said them to geoff...and if geoff ever told the NLP.
