Mick Channon: Man On The Run 

Mick channon great man ❤

I have so much respect for this man, has been so successful in his life through hard hard work. I wish him many more years of sucess and good health.

Seen and Chatted to Mick Channon many a time in bookies in Norwich years ago , lovely guy always got time for a chat

Great interview and a great guy

I remember mick just before he started training horses he used to go in corals fair Oak and he had a sports car with a silver horse on the bonnet years later i was a taxi driver and had a fare to bishops Waltham this guy was going to help make a book on mikes brother he told me that there were 3 brothers but tragically mikes other brother died in a farm accident but i have great respect and memories of mick.

Takes me back to being a child going to games with my Dad. Obsessed with football then Leeds fan but Channon was a massive personality then his accent kind of made him lovely to listen to. I bet he still calls Lineker Lin acre. Old school like my Dad was a grafter and never missed a days work. when he died they offered me compassionate leave but I said no my Dad would be furious if I used him as an excuse he was the best Dad but he hated wishy washy excuses. Loved his nights out and having fun but he would still frown at me at 55 if he thought I was not grafting or going home from the pub before the staff had started cleaning down. Mick and my Dad are a dying breed alpha males who dont understand wishy washy modern people pleasers.

At school in the seventies, l was always told to tuck my shirt in when playing football, l never did. I realised they couldn't grab your shirt and pull you down as you took them on, and so went on to score many, many goals. Always picked first for a team as well , l have Mick Channon to thank for that.😁

All the very best for Christmas and the New Year!!!!!

Sir mick channon well he is my book as been my altime saints favourite player I've stood for many happy hours at the dell watching my hero yes my hero . When I was so poorly my dear old dad bless him knew micks then mother in law and asked I'd mick could write me a letter to help me get better well he did and I've still got it and I'm 63 now and will never get rid of it. I've got one thing to say to sir mick thanks and I can still do the windmill and do when something great happens for me. If you were lucky enough to watch sir mick play you were so lucky like me

It's great to be able to hear from players of that era because at the time - here in Australia at least - you'd never hear a word from them. You just saw the football on tv and that was it; you'd grow to like certain players but you really knew nothing about them at all.

Great day’s watching you play for Norwich! Asked my Dad to have a bet on Norwich at 16/1 for the Milk Cup and of course we won! Happy Days 😊

Wish Matt Chapman would stop interrupting Mick and let the man talk

Not sure that Mike's recollection of transfer fees here is accurate. He reckons that his £300,000 move to Man City in 1977 was a record, but from what I can gather, it seems that Stoke City signed Peter Shilton for £325,000 in 1974, and that Bob Latchford moved to Everton for £350,000 in the same year.

People rarely mention Mick Channon but he wasn't half good thinking about it. Then off he'd go with that windmill arm. He was a bit of a nutcase really.

50 mill in todays money sir mick more like 250 mill worth every penny

Ps mick can you give me a winner 😂

50 Million Mick is delusional He couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with a shotgun
