Colin Addison: ‘Infectiously influential’
Available for over a year
The legendary Hereford manager, who masterminded the most famous FA Cup upset in history, is described as 'more than just a giant-killer', leaving a legacy across the county he loved. Andy Morris describes how he met Colin Addison on the second day of his time in Hereford and was a regular at Edgar Street, Westfields, Hereford Pegasus and Wellington - even inspiring one Westfields turnaround from 3-0 down at half time to 4-3 winners when the whistle blew. The Westfields CEO recalls to Trevor Owens fond memories of Addison's time around the city, not least frequent trips to the coffee bar of the Green Dragon Hotel, as well as his own goal in the 1972 draw against Newcastle that prompted the replay which changed it all.
