Due to Irving Nattrass injury record at the Boro it was suprising that he did actually play one full season without missing a single game

George Camsell has the best goals-to-game ratio of any England player, after getting to the 18-goal mark in just nine caps.

That is surprising. Good player was Nattrass.
Didn't we pay a big fee to get him from Newcastle? The biggest ever for a full back at the time I think.

£425k at the time, unfortunately we lost Stuey Boam to the Geordies back then too

Nattrass was a top, upcoming CB, nowhere near the late, great Willie Maddren but a very good signing all the same, sadly his poor form of injuries meant we never seen the best of him

He came to the club injured & when he actually started for the Boro, away to Arsenal, he wore No10
