I was born in 1973, youngest of 5, my family bled red before moving to the USA permanently in 1981. Lived in Eastham, Wirral. Anyway, still was a young kid, but Kevin Keegan was my first hero, until another #7 came to town, (was to young to understand what a transfer meant in 1977!)
King Kenny, and no one will ever replace him as my favorite red. Other notables for me was Stevie Heighway, Emlyn Hughes, Alan Hanson.
I never got to see Rush, Fowler, or Owens heydays as football was not broadcasted in the USA back then, but I got to watch the NY cosmos play on carpet at giants stadium, great times! (Sarcasm)
