Well steeljack I'm one of them and I do remember the "Doug" or Shayanne as he was nick named (not sure thats how you spell it) the only thing I can remmber him doing was asking for a transfer on the eve of the 1960 F.A. Cup Final, and playing even though he was injured, mind you I was only 13 at the time and if he was doing other naughties I may not have heard about them, or wanted to hear about them or actually knowing what they were talking about, I live a very sheltered childhood you understand

Dougans nick name was cheyenne, after a character in a western series staring Clint Walker. made his debut against Arsenal away March 14th 1959 made a total of 76 games in all competions scoring 34 goals, after the 1960 cup final his form dipped and was transfered to Aston Villa in August 1961 for £15,000

An amusing update on this one. As Dyer was coming on as sub at yesterdays game, the operators of the big screen at Southampton decided to display a messages to the fans while there was a break in play;

" Please remember to look after your valuables " was the message

Bad timing or coincidence ?
