Re: Hall of Fame - Vote for 18th Inductee

Saxon wrote:Even though I nominated Albert Johannson for inclusion on the list of inductees, mainly for his personal achievements, today I voted for Trevor Cherry ahead of Albert.I voted for Trevor because of his services to Leeds United. 486 appearances for Leeds and 27 England caps.
Originally signed from Huddersfield to take over from Jack Charlton upon his retirement, out of necessity he took over the left back position after Terry Cooper broke his leg, and Cooper's very adequate back up Nigel Davy also seriously injured on the same day as Cooper. I think Trevor Cherry's overall contribution to the team equaled Cooper's, maybe not in the overlapping attacking role Cooper perfected, but in his all around defensive duties.
Coming from Huddersfield into a team of superstars, he won us over with his hard graft combined with skill and intelligence. So much that he took over as Captain after Billy Bremner retired. After the Revie team grew old and faded, a trail of big name players came and left in the 1970's, some contributed well, some were duds, but Trevor and a couple of other 'Core' players kept us in the top flight for a few more years.
As always Saxon you bring back many memories and Nigel Davy is one of those names you forget until someone mentions him.
Its a period I was young enough not to have commitments but old enough to travel, missed very few games home & away in that era.
Trevor Cherry was a big fav of mine, believe he captained England at least once.

We have a tie in the voting for this months inductee, Trevor Cherry, Tony Currie & Les Cocker all received 5 votes.

Could I ask everyone to vote again with just these 3 included.

Thanks.

Due to another tie in the tie-break I've added both Trevor Cherry and Les Cocker to our Hall of Fame.

As we've added two the next vote for the 22nd inductee will be in March

The Hall of Fame is looking very impressive now. It’s interesting to see the selections after the Revie-era squad dominated the early votes.
