I remember going to watch us play Crewe where he got sent off in the first half. He mastered the art of heading the ball
while headbutting the opponent at the same time. The most funny memorable moment was when I watched him play a Tuesday night match,
he moved from the center-half position to the right of the midfield, and the opposition had a player who was kicking some of the younger Blackpool players, as he walked past the player he deliberately elbowed him in the face. The officials didn't see the incident as the play
was at the other end.
I also remember the Spurs game, when Linkear missed that chance, having watched a reply of it recently the nearest player was Briggs,
his reputation and style of play must have been so well known that strikers must have feared playing against him, and hence it must have
a huge impact on their performance when they were watching him rather than the ball.
