What they Said
โA year ago I would have been in a panic but now it does not bother me and, if they want me to, I will take the penalties against Arsenal in the FA Cup on Saturday and against Juventus in the European Cup in Turn next Wednesday.
โThe only problem is I donโt know wether the others will let me take them after also missing penalties against Barcelona and Wolves!
โThe Important thing is that my general form is good even though admit I should have had a hat-trick."
Gordon Cowans.
โMy neck began to stiffen up after the first leg against Juventus and the frightening thing is that in the course of a week, it has hardly improved.
โI must be doubtful for Saturday's game unless something dramatic happens.โ
Tony Morley.
โIt's very sore at the moment but I am sure I will be ready [for Arsenal and Juventus].โ
Dennis Mortimer.
โThe club doctor la looking at him [Dennis Mortimer] today but he has stud marks on his knee which has swollen up since came off.โ
Tony Barton.
