Sir Len and Bernard Shaw walked out on the pitch to make their debuts against Leyton Orient in a 2 - 0 win. Never realised that Len would become the Rolls Royce of right backs which he became. Unbelievably never won a full cap. I was on the Lane End for that game. If you never saw him believe me he oooozed class. Very sad news.

He certainly was CLASSY Mahatma,i think the only player i can remember givin Sir Len a hard time consistently was Leighton James.He was a left winger for Burnley who could go either way and he was as i said the only one i remember giving Sir Len a bit of a chasing when he played against us. UTB
