I've tried unsuccessfully to find him. I contacted someone at a university in Tokyo with the same name...but had no response.
I seem to remember we could only pay him expenses, something to do with him having a student visa and not being allowed to claim a wage. Decent player too.
Pretty sure I saw his debut at Forest Green. I remember him doing well but sort of disappeared after a few games, which was a shame because he was a coup at the time. Think we signed him from Morecambe?
Alan McDonald was more versatile than a Swiss Army knife.
Just watched the Big Match Revisited. It had the results of Goal of the Season for 74-75. Tony Field was 3rd for his goal for Sheffield Utd v Ipswich.It was a brilliant goal from a player that was brilliant for us.

It would be interesting to hear how you tracked him down and got his message for the podcast. Did he reflect on his time with us?
