    Yep Steels, it's Sir Rickie of Lambertshire, a bona fide Saints Legend! ...in fact he has scored at every professional level in England.

    Pile = Rick, for example = ie, North American pine = Lambert
    Extended Young One = Rick(ie), half a cigarette = Lambert (and Butler)

    Your turn mate!

    As a child of the 70s, it has to be Cliftonhill Stadium. I was raised on Bernie's ostrich and Benny's dirty jokes...<laugh>
