Who changed the topic title- interesting.

[GorgeousGus]

Me sorry - I realised that nowadays that was not enough information!

Loved Jeff, possibly one of the most un-gifted players to ever play for Fulham, but gave 100% in every game. Always came off with a dirty, bloody shirt, bruised something, or clattered a player that got to involved in a game. Always chipped in with an important goal here and there.

Happy birthday Jeff, shame there isn't more of you around these days.

[west kowloon white]

Thanks- did see him play many times but fifty didn't seem to fit.
Happy birthday-where is he now?

[JDH101]

Legend. Happy Birthday Jeff.

Happy Birthday Jeff , never a bad game  and he gave us so much.

Only fifty then why was he not brought on for the last 15 minutes at Charlton to stop the rot.

[Sir Alec of good Stock]

I remember him having to take over in goal midway through a game, can anyone remind me of the game in question?

He used to live in Horsham.

Happy Birthday Jeff, he's almost exactly the same age as me and I have great memories of him. Although my memory of those days is sometimes confused, did he line out with the legendary Jim Hicks and the small, but perfectly formed, Cliff Carr?

[Zendra]

Yes I  liked Jeff too . Signed hm from Sheff Utd and played 250 times for us scoring 25 goals - not a bad scoring record for a defender  I think he left just before the promotion year from the 4th tier. Brings back memories of people like Gary Barnett , Gary Brazil and John Marshall.

Wasn't part of the most talented era in Fulham history but a 100% man.  Happy birthday Jeff.

[GorgeousGus]

He made his debut and played his first couple of games alongside the legend that was Jim Hicks - Cliff Carr had gone by then though - Keith Oakes, Jeff Hopkins, Gary Elkins, Gen Thomas and Richard Langley were the other defenders when he arrived

[Tonywa]

Was a more than decent centre back capable of playing at about Championship level in that position, but not nearly as effective at full back, in midfield or up front where he also played during his time at the Cottage.  His father was a great supporter of Jeff and was to be seen in the main stand every time we played in the North of England - which was a heck of a lot in those lower division days.

One of my Fulham hero's and I have photo of me presenting him with a player of the month award in front of the Hammersmith End.
Always gave 100% when playing.
