One of my favourite players. Where did the nickname Daisy come from ?
I remember one game against Plymouth in 1964 where he got two penalties in 3 minutes at the end around 86th minute.
He had dived to head the ball but hot kicked to death twice. Smelling salts , pointed in the right direction, bang, bang from 0-2 down in 35 minutes to 3-2 winners against Malcolm Allison's team. Frank Lord was centre forward I believe for Plymouth. He shook Dennis's hand at the end. He had earlier retrieved a ball to hand back for a Charlton free kick. Teal sportsmen were Frank and Dennis
He got the nickname because he had an unfortunate habit of ending up on the grass so often........hence being amongst the daisies.
Surely Williams is the new Daisy then 😀😀
Daisy Williams?
Or as the OS might headline say, "Here comes Daisy!"
