Certainly not forgotten, here. Up there with Bruce Grobbelar as one of the most "accident-prone" goalies in British football. I remember him hurling the ball into his own net once. But he was a good goalie, nevertheless. It's difficult to know just how good, though, because Leeds's outfield players usually maimed the opposition before they got anywhere near Sprake. It was a horrid period. It's a young age for a professional sportsman, so I wonder what the cause was.
RIP Gary - a great entertainer.
Ian Porterfield went too young, too - remember him?
