John Honour was hailed as the "new McGovern", mostly because he looked and moved just like him.
I'd never heard of him until I saw him make his first team debut, and it's true I thought "what the fook is McGovern doing back here?"
(For the record I thought J McG was nowt special at Pools.)

He waltzed into their team back then too! Spelman played four games on loan at Darlo. The results? 0-7, 0-7, 0-3, 1-3 :laugh:

I admit, I quite liked him :uhoh:
