Cyril was one of the first breed of what are now known as Wing Backs and he could get forward a deliver a great cross most of the time but that did not distract from his ability as a defender too which although prone to some rare bouts of carelessness was very fearsome and there were not many Wingers around who relished coming up against him.

However my lasting memory is Cyril performing an outragous dummy on our goal line against Everton. I have never seen anything like it before or since. It says much for this mans skill and mental strenthe that he could think about doing it let alone pull it off. He was a fantastic attacking full back with pace and left foot that could cross a ball with such accuracy it has never been matched. This guy was a genuis of a footballer yet quiet and unasumeing. If Ray Wilson had not been a England fixture after the Worl Cup win i think Cyril would have gained at least 50 caps The obvious memory of Cyril was the two goals he scored against Leeds in a 4-2 win that kept Spurs in thr 1st Division.

To me one of the greatest wingers that ever played in the Uk and certainly for Spurs. Maybe I’m old, but I never see the name of John White “the Ghost” mentioned.
