He seemed to go from being a young fella with confidence to burn and not a care in the world, to someone whose head or heart just wasn't in the game, and that happened at exactly the point when he would otherwise have been making the step up to the Premier League with all guns blazing. He was never really the same player afterward, though he always put in a shift for Albion when required. I'm glad he's still going strong at 34, and hope his family are well.
I thought he was a really terrific player. As I recall he cost us £100,000 from Livingston - that must have been one of our best ever signings, pound for pound
