    recent sale price of jersey worn by Welshman Sir Gareth Edwards in 1973 v. Barbarians -- when he scored what is said to be the best try ever. (see You Tube>)

    and good luck to the Taffs tomorrow!

    Maradona's '86 semi final shirt went for £7.1m. That makes football nearly 30x better than rugby.

    It was the ‘hand of god’ shirt, swapped with Diego by Steve Hodge, who auctioned it last year.. Bloody Forest, always looking after themselves.. :eek:

    Do we know how much the club offered Butch ?.
    He turned us down of course saying he couldn't leave Inverness etc. And then he did leave them for Hibernian, and was sacked there less than a year later. :D
    Maybe it was a bullet dodged after all.
