Player Notes:
Graham made one of the greatest league debuts in history when he scored a hat-trick as Liverpool thrashed Aston Villa 5-1 at Anfield on 26th September 1964, two months before his 20th birthday. His explosive start however fizzled out after 15 games and he only played 10 matches in the next 3 years. He won a regular place in the side in April 1969 when Roger Hunt and Ian St John were disappearing into the sunset and played all 54 games in the 1969-70 season. After a promising start to the 1970-71 season, he fell awkwardly on the Anfield turf when Chelsea were the visitors early in October and was carried off with a broken leg. John Toshack was signed from Cardiff City only weeks later and with Kevin Keegan arriving from Scunthorpe the following spring, Bobby's days at Liverpool were numbered and he moved on to Coventry City where he stayed 18 months, playing only 19 games and also being loaned out to Tranmere, before joining his home town club, Motherwell. |
