Jim Gannon

Jim Gannon is the sort of club man I genuinely respect. He bookended his playing days in Ireland but gave the heart of his career to Stockport County, where supporters voted him into their Hall of Fame, no small honour. Standing at 188 cm and later moving into management, he is one of those figures whose name becomes woven into a club's local memory across two careers. To me, being permanently lodged in the affection of a town's fans is worth more than any single trophy. Deep, lasting bonds between a player and one club are exactly what I value most in football.
