Is this the weakest tie of the round? Persuade me otherwise by regaling me with your tales of these two.
 
Colin Morris was IMO a much better player than Derek Woodley, although he didn't have Woodley's pace he was more productive in terms of scoring. So it's Morris for me.

Very similar goalscoring records but there is absolutely no doubt that Derek Woodley gets it forme because:
  • He was brilliant
  • He scored a number of absoluetly unbelievable goals cutting in from the right
  • His crosses made goals for the Mike Beesleys and Bobby Gilfillans of our team whereas crosses weren't Morris' top skills - he could beat a player,pass a ball and shoot but crosses...........
  • He was my mum's favourite and.....
  • He did it all without ever tackling anyone and his wife makes a mean ommelette
 
Got to go for Woodley as I nominated him for this prestgious competition, however must admit Colin Morris was certainly a good tricky winger who could score goals as well.
