What they Said

Brighton & Hove Albion.png

โ€œOur two central defenders certainly benefitted from his [Nigel Spinkโ€™s] presence behind them.

"He had a superb match and was always in command of his area which was a bonus after the Watford game where he made several mistakes.

"Peter Shilton isn't getting any younger and he can't go on for ever.

"It should give younger men like Spink the encouragement to challenge for international honours."

Billy McNeill.
