Re: Happy 65th Birthday Billy Ashcroft
Happy Birthday fella!
My boyhood hero. I remember running onto the pitch at the end of a game (against Mansfield I think) in the mid 70s to get his tie-ups. How chuffed was I . It's not many years ago I threw those pieces of old bandage out! Last edited by Once A Red Always A Red; 2nd October 2017 at 10.53:22.. |

Re: Happy 65th Birthday Billy Ashcroft
It's the likes of Billy that set us apart from most Clubs in the lower divisions - he was one of many brilliant players we had in the 1970s and must have been one of the most effective centre forwards in Britain.
Happy Birthday Billy - a genuine Wrexham Legend. |

Re: Happy 65th Birthday Billy Ashcroft
Had the pleasure of meeting him a couple of years ago, also had my picture taken with him. The last time I had my picture taken was 1976 when I got married, but this one with Billy is special.
