Joe Jordan

Watching"Icons of Football" about Joe, loved the big man, his time with Leeds then Utd and his relationship with Gordon McQueen, his Scotland career and some of his memories

I remember watching the Wales game where he clearly handled it but got the penalty great memories and one of my first football heroes

I'm not that angry at him really. More the ref that fell for it!

Frank Stapleton was definitely a downgrade on Big Joe.

I am sure Frank was Big Ron's first signing? He brought in a lot of good players - we never had the mentality to win the league, but on our day we were good to watch and we often raised our game against Liverpool back then and could match them, but lacked consistency over a season. The likes of Robson, McGrath, Hughes, Moses, Muhren, Whiteside, Wilkins to name a few, fond memories growing up as a kid

Loved Frankie too.

Frank, like Joe was excellent in the air. Both held the ball up well too. But neither score more than 20 goals a season. After Sexton left, Big Ron was tasked to make United a more attractive watch (it was like paint drying under Sexton) and built a team that was reliant on Bryan Robson who would arrive late in the box. Stapleton held the ball up well and got it out wide which set it up well for Robbo.
