Originally an attacking left-side player, he spent much of his career as a left-back known for his dribbling skill when overlapping down the left wing. He was a great crowd favourite and was inducted into the club's Hall of Fame. After football, he ran a local sports shop with Ray Crawford that lasted for only two years. He died in September 2002 at the age of 63.[2]
