Must be Jack Smith then.
 
Hockey was very good in this match,the game that saw that Best goal. If Ted Hemsley hadn't gone off injured Best wouldn't have scored Ted would've tackled him or flattened him or both. UTB
Sat with a Bolton fan last night talking football and he was telling me that the bloke who had the best view of that goal was Billy Dearden. Aparently his brother, Jack, is a local( north west) commentator and he uses the story in his after dinner speecehes about Billy standing there, hands on hips on the halfway line, watching Best work his magic.
