A poignant last couple of days for me but I am absolutely thrilled that at today’s fixture, Mick Jones will be honoured with the club’s Lifetime Achievement Award-so richly deserved for a true legend who gave everything for the shirt. Seeing (Stan) Paul Reaney recognised last season, and now Mick, really brings home just how special that golden era was. These were players who didn’t just play for the club-they were the club. And hopefully it won’t be long before Mick’s great strike partner, Alan Clarke, gets his moment too. “Sniffer” gave us so many unforgettable memories-he deserves to stand alongside them. Days like this remind you what football is really about: pride, history, and legends who will never be forgotten.
