In the days when referees literally booked players I thought it best that they write Forbes' name in the book before the start of the game and then cross it out at the end if there had not been a reason to book him. RIP though. | | | |

Sad news from over the border - Duncan Forbes gone on 19:15 - Oct 24 with 5147 views | Sharkey | 270 games for Colchester before Norwich, 1961-1968. He was belatedly inducted into the U's hall of fame in 2016. He had been afflicted by alzheimers for many years, and the award was accepted on his behalf by Ray Crawford. It was a very heavy ball he headed for so many years. | | | |

Not relevant to this post. If you could just have some decency and either offer your condolences or skip past the thread, that would be great. RIP Duncan. | | | |

I would be surprised because Duncan Forbes never scored against us-at least not in a competitive game although he might have done in a friendly or a testimonial. | | | |

I think it was actually Sheff we'd as we never wore white sleeves from the end of the sixties and throughout the 70's. | | | |

What’s that supposed to mean? I genuinely thought it was against us. Have I done something to offend you ?? | |

Sad news from over the border - Duncan Forbes gone on 22:58 - Oct 25 with 3836 views | handslikeplates | Sad news, he was a very good player for Norwich, played during the days that you could make a tackle. | | | |
Sad news from over the border - Duncan Forbes gone on 07:37 - Oct 26 with 3677 views | colly | A tough Scot who became an East Anglian. He played 270 games for us before going to Carrow Road. I wouldn't recall him, but a few oldies I know have spoken about him with great regard after hearing of his end. He cost Norwich £10, 000 , btw. Decent then but an ordinary Championship player's weekly wage now. | | | |

Even on a thread like this you can't help yourself can you? the clip wasn't Ipswich and it wasn't the Milk cup but never mind aye? you have to have a pop at Norwich no matter what the subject matter.You are a nasty old woman get some help. | | | |
