Hmm, wonder what way this one will go:unsure:
For some reason John Kurila was called Joe by the Southend or better still killer, a no nonsense centre back who seemed to be all arms and legs.
Billy Best was quite simply my all time Blues favourite player, we may have had players with greater skills who played at a higher level, but IMO Billy Best was incomparable.
I feel the same way. Kurila was a half way decent centre defender, who always seemed to give 110% commitment, but Billy Best was simply the very best, he was completely incomparable.
I expect training matches would have been interesting with these two pitted against each other.
