Went to Hilsborough today to see our FA cup game with Wednesday. Afterwards I took a bit of a risk with a knock knock in the middle of the West Yorkshire countryside, I thought I was well prepared with maps but I wasn't and I didn't find the place till 6.45pm. As it happened the knock knock gods were looking down on me favourably because as I was out walking up the road trying to find the house in the pitch black a car pulled up and was the chap I had come to see.
I had come to see Dick Kryzwicki who came to us on a loan from Udders in the 73/74 season playing eight games and scoring three times.
He's a lovely chap, he invited me in and we had a chat for fifteen minutes about his time in football. He said he was losing interest in football but you would never have guessed it if you had heard him.
Thank you very much Dick.
