A Great Farewell
Steve Bull hung up his boots for the last time at Molineux this afternoon after the legendary striker played the opening minutes of his 20th anniversary game, against Aston Villa.
Steve, who was made honorary Vice President this week, was hoping to play for longer but had to take his bow with little over five minutes gone, after struggling with his knee.
"I enjoyed it, it was great to walk out and hear the fans again," he said.
"I was hoping to get half an hour or more before I came in today, but then I was working out in the gym here at Molineux pre-match and I felt the knee go.
"I said to the gaffer that I'd not be doing much more than kicking off after that, and I stayed on as long as I could.
"It was a bit embarrassing hearing everyone cheering for me, coming out of the tunnel at 41 years of age, not 18!"
Steve even had a chance to score in the opening minutes after a cross from Lewis Gobern, but he admits he missed his opportunity.
"I was thinking of chesting it down and volleying it into the net like the good old days instead of just going for the header, but it didn't come off," he admitted.
"After that I knew it was sensible to take the boots off, and so that's it now.
"I'll be sitting up in the posh seats, watching the games with everyone else, and doing my bit for the club - but not on the field!
"It was nice to just say that one last farewell, wearing the shirt out on the pitch." |
