Tommy Heffernan – “I’d Have Broke Both His Legs”
Some forthright and strongly worded views from one of the legends of the 80โs โ Tommy Heffernan. A marauding full-back with a license to score, a man whose tackles made the whole crowd wince and a man who was in the supporters club after every game getting a round in for the fans.
The last full-back to score double figures in a league season and a man who loved our club so much he joined it twice making 217 appearances and scoring 27 timesโฆ. Part of two promotion sides here in Bournemouth and another promotion with Sheffield United life with Tommy was never dull and we know this show wonโt be either…
Parental discretion is advised on this video, including a number of F bombs, and some very frank opinions on today’s footballers.

Thing is -as a rugby player who played football as well – I laugh at your football ‘hard men’. Breaking legs is a coward’s act. Toe to toe is what a man does.
