Foxes A to Z, Keith Weller, bright talent with heroic influence
A marvellously talented, sometimes temperamental individualist who lent £100.000 worth of forceful right-flank panache to Jimmy Bloomfield’s elegant teams of the early 70’s, Keith could usually be relied up on to deliver a tellingly spectacular contribution to the most mundane of games.

A single off color game, albeit in…
