Unusual marking!

by Bruno Bear
(England)

I remember Green playing for Carlisle against Sunderland in the early 70s at Roker Park.
The then Sunderland centre half Dave Watson (later of Man City, Southampton, Werder Bremen? and England fame) was winning everything in the air when coming upfield for corners. In desperation Green resorted to pulling down Watsons shorts just before a corner was taken! Watson stopped his run to pull them up and the corner was headed clear.
Ive yet to meet anyone except my brother who noticed the incident.
