This is a Christmas card isn't it. Who's the player between Greenhoff and Bloor?

Thanks Dave.
Don't know much about him other than having heard the name. Was he any good?

Before my time, but he was apparently a very good player for Liverpool in the sixties before Waddo signed him. I'm sure some of the old farts on here can fill you in about his time at Stoke.  |

  Stevenson Looks more like Stevenson to me from the above but I'm coming from a position of not being born when the photo was taken! |

Someone please print this picture and take it into the Coral at the top of Trentham Road and show it Alan Bloor and settle it one way or another! |

Another great photo. It is Stevenson isn't it?! Just before my time - but that Stevenson fella looks like a monster! An early version of Huth. A question to Stokies of that time - what was he like as a player. |

Willie Stevenson, on account of it definitely not being Jimmy Robertson.
Doesn't the photo pre-date when Robertson signed (July 1972)?

It is Willie Stevenson.
He was an ok player - steady without really being exciting. I think he had lost any pace or mobility from earlier in his career.
He was yet another victim of the boo boys.

I think Terry Conroy cheated and just dyed his 'tash.

Bit of a steady Eddie in midfield and probably bigger than Huth if it is him, I'm not so sure.He was a full Scottish International and he made his name in the Liverpool side in the early sixties with players like Alf Arrowsith, Roger Hunt, Tony Hateley etc.Greenhoff joined in 1969, - think that was around the time he left, same with Alex Elder and Roy Vernon.

WS was Responsible for one of my first ruined weekends in 1968(9, 70?)ish. 89th minute 2-1 down away to QPR, who had been relegated, and he put a penalty beautifully outside the post. No more goals in the game.
Stylish midfield player, one of the last old boys Waddo signed, you could see he was a good player but I think the legs were going with us. Horrific leg break (Ipswich?) finished his career.
