Hi Fellow Bluebirds. Can anyone help me out with this one? I seem to remember that Jimmy wore the No. 9 shirt. Am I right - or does my memory deceive me?

No problem mate. He and Kevin Bartlett were deadly in their day, complimented each other perfectly.

Totally agree with you there. They were awesome, especially at that level. I think Jimmy went to Portsmouth following Frank Burrows departure there and Bartlett went to WBA? Great memories for me as I was only about 13 years old

Thanks for the comments, Guys. My youngest daughter was CCFC mascot at Bramall Lane on a cold February evening (she was 8) and Jimmy took her "under his wing" and looked after her. Lucky mascot - we won 1-0 !!!
