There is an article on the OM website today about the passing of Ron Goodison: CLICK HERE In the uncaptioned photo, Ron is fourth from the left in the front row, between Tony Bradbury and Bob Jackson. The 58-59 season was his most productive with 39 goals including four against Banbury N.A.C. and five against Morris Motors in the season's excellent run in the Amateur Cup. His penultimate match was in November 1968 when he came on as a substitute in the close-run FA Cup tie at The White House against Swansea Town. His final City appearance was in April 1970 in the home Isthmian fixture against Hitchin Town.

I watched him play many times, and there were few inside forwards to match him. Luke Coulson's style reminded me of him quite a bit. Ronnie linked up extremely well with Tony Bradbury and Jack Woodley, and their combined goalscoring achievements were real 'Boys' Own Paper' stuff.
