Sims was very good. Voted for him as player of the year in the 1950s, cant remember which year but he won it. Also the reason for me becoming a keeper.
 
What about the best headers of the ball.

Andy Lochead
Peter Withe
Shaun Teal
Olaf Melberg
Allan Evans
Alan Shearer
Mick Shannon
Andy Gray
Jeff Astle
Tony Adams

Not in that order.

Seriously though. I remember feeling like he went of his own accord and being peed off. Don’t know about then Ellis thing though.

He was crap anyway and cost us the Fa cup in 2000.

I remember it that James was effectively forced out too. He was a great keeper for us, and we sold him for a pittance. Very bad business on our part but don't remember feeling any anomosity towards James. Sure he wanted to stay.
 
Spot on Deano... I remember him saying he was disappointed when Villa said they'd listen to offers from West Ham. He wasn't wanting or looking for a move.

I came across the penalty shootout against Bolton in the FA Cup semi-final the other day, I forgot James saved those penalties. He was the hero of that shootout.
