It's weird.........very few got the fact that it is DOH and not DOC, probably/possibly because of his namesake, the Ex- Man U manager? Whatever way u want to say it, Tommy was one of the greatest players to ever grace the Gate , with just a few tweaks, he could have played at a much higher level.......and with his combination of combativeness and skill he often held the midfield together, a very underrated footballer. Possibly, with Jacki, Super Bob and Walshie, one of my best loved City players. I will definitely be drinking to that!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh Louie louie Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 One of my best ever away days, when tommy scored a bullet header at brentford. Smashed them off the park, and the whole away end was making farmyard noises for 90 minutes. They had a bloke in goal, looked like he lived on kebabs and larger.

We could do with a midfield #4 like him right now. Great player, fearless, saw him put his head on the line several times for us, probably one of the most committed I’ve ever seen wear the shirt. One of those that deserved to wear it week in, week out. Edited November 29, 2021 by real_bristol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh Louie louie Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 He wasnt frightened to get stuck in. That game when torpey scored against swindon, george ndah and him had a set too. Tommy jumped up squared up to him, there was about a two foot height diffrence! Shail came over then, again gave ndah a bit. He didnt lose much in the air for his size.
