Muzz, he could/should have his own thread !!
I recall one v Watford at home, he smacked it and it took a very slight deflection and I've never seen a ball bend and dip like it did on it's way to the net.

Alas, Toddy could have been an all time hero but chose to go to a better club-Oldham.
Nuff said

Remember when I was in school, saw some guy on "non-uniform" day, in, what was obviously his dads (who was also an obvious XL  ), old Stoke Carling black and white top with "TODDY 6" on the back in really crap bourne sports printing. Thank god names are a common thing now ;D |

Toddy must be one of the most significant signings in our history. Why?
If we hadn't signed Toddy,we would not have signed Larus Siggurdson (Toddy's cousin or some distant relation ).It was Siggurdson that Gudjon Thordasson came to watch when he was the Iceland manager.That gave him his dream of getting financial backing from the Icelanders to pursue his dream of taking Stoke to the premiership,which in turn gave Coates
the chance of selling the club for loads more than he could have dreamed possible whilst retaining his "Golden shares".
So the Icelanders save us from possible financial ruin,Mr.Coates meanwhile is making millions in his new internet gambling business and the rest is as they say history.
All due to Toddy!!

I've got Nottingham. It was on a video SCFC released. Randalls in here, Randalls in here.
Toddy was a tosser.

I met Toddy in Iceland a couple of years ago. A pleasant chap who at the time was managing Akranes. He also played in the game that I saw but was taken off with a disolcated shoulder!

Met Toddy a few times- once in the bar after a pre season game, Crewe I think when I told a mate of mine that I thought he played shit and he went over to tell him. Toddy then came over and gave me a 10 minute lecture on how he wanted out of Stoke as he hated Macari so much.
Was often in the 'China Palace' in Newcastle with his very tasty wife as well.
Never forget a miss at Barnsley when he rounded the keeper- for some reason hesitated- let the keeper get up again- side stepped him again before somehow putting the ball into the side netting.
He did call Lou a 'cunt' which for me was the highlight of his Stoke career -

I always rated Toddy. We must be very thankful to him also as he started the whole Icelandic thing off. You could say he was the saviour of our club. |

cant comment on his personality but the fact that Oldham were prepapred & able to offer him
better terms speaks volumes for teh financial regime under Coates in those days.
onec Toddy left Lou moved old man Gleghorn into centre-mid which mist Stokies thought was insane (me inc).
Nige then linked up with Wallace (who was superb under Lou,utter waste of space thereafter),keeno & Junior Potter in what panned out to be a superbly balanced midfield which Sheron & Sturridge benefitted from.
Gleghorns understanding of the quick early pass (short or long) was far more beneficial than Toddys tendancy to hold onto the ball.
Unfortunatly Gleghorns replacement Kavanagh repeated the trick.
