Max Bell of Any Old Iron offered this view on club hero
Sharp: «His determination was tenacious, his movement off the
ball was sublime and he'd fight for a cause like a dog
with a gold bone between his
teeth.»
Not just any kind of a
ball, and certainly not the soft foam rubber type, (which can be chewed to bits and swallowed), not the inflatable children's
ball that can puncture
with his
sharp baby
teeth.
