"And it would be nice to think that the left-back Alan Rogers knows what an honour is accorded him in the shout of "Come on, Tank!" as he races up the touchline with the ball at his feet, giving the same impression of power and resolution that originally prompted the fans to bestow the nickname on Peter Hindley, the right-back of Johnny Carey's lovely side almost 40 years ago.
