After this race, they put him to stud for a few months. Tears when I backed him for the derby at 50s got 20s the day before. In the derby, it was the first time he trapped well it was all over down the back. Brilliant winner.
I'm not a Millwall supporter - nothing against them mind - but I love the way Teddy, who has won everything in the game, reminisces about his time with Millwall, it's clear how much he loved it.
My brother Kevin Howard boxed for the Repton in the 70s before our family moved to Vancouver Canada in 77 where he went on to win 2 Canadian National Championships 79 80 he often mentions the guys at Repton and the Great Tony Burns 👍
Although a bit before my time, I did get taken to see Terry play in the 70s. Never forget seeing WHL under the lights as a six year old. Bought Terry's book a few weeks ago and couldnt put it down. Read it in two days on holiday. Brilliant. COYS!
That's really nice, Amy was a great singer! I never knew when I was a boy boxing for St Monicas that I would end up teaching at her primary school in Southgate and talking to the staff there who remembered her as their pupil. I would just say there are so many talented children out there who need that lucky break. In the words of Einstein, every child is born a genius. God bless everyone.
It was really enjoyable watching this video, as it helped to brush away the cobwebs from my brain's memory bank, and I could recall watching many of the names mentioned box at York Hall and other locations. My best friend growing up was Joey Wreden, so I went to watch him numerous times, and in fact was with him at the Royal Albert Hall the night he won the Junior ABAs on the same night as Jimmy Flint also won his title. However, Joey boxed for West Ham when he won his title and joined Repton a little later. I was also hoping the video would have included a clip of Joey's old adversary of that era, Johnny Whitehorn, but sadly it didn't. Great days.
Teddy you react to rude people,Alan sugar ummmm,he really is not in your class regarding manners, so sad to know our late Queen tap him on the shoulder. instead of the tower of London way,hahahahahahhahah
As a life-long Arsenal supporter, although it pains me to say it, Teddy Sheringham was blessed with a brain and instinct (as well as two feet) which meant that his teams had the Gods on their side ! No more aptly was this demonstrated than in the European Champions League Final when he did the same to Bayern Munich !! He was literally the Coolest Man in Professional Football !!! (But he'll always be a C*** to me !!!!)

My father used to drink in the Royal Oak pub back in the 80s his name was Terry Nicked named Elvis of canning town 😅. I had my first drink of beer when I was 2 years of age I was sitting on the bar and when my dad's back was turned to talk to somebody I stole his pint of beer and started to drink it 😅.
Hello Jim,love the channel.I remember you from back in the late 80s when I worked at the Londonderry hotel and you were working at the casino.Good luck mate.
The fact that it was a SPLIT decision against Sugar Ray is superlative. Ultimate respec to all of you! I'm from Plaistow, I remember the Royal oak, and The Black Lion, and all the fighters that trained there!
