Birch, Paul Played school Football with him at Menzies High School in West Bromwich. Often seen in the Manor House pub on a Saturday after a game. Was still the same even when at the top, just a nice bloke. The only time he lost the ball was when he passed it. He could have beaten most school sides with just him and a keeper.
