Lagboat 2 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I quite loved Tel but I've heard some Bears comments over the years thinking he was shite.What's your view? Bloke I work with is a Millwall fan and he's a legend down there as you'd expect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear 25 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Tony Cascarino: "Some of us [Millwall players] were playfully goading Terry about what he was going to do to Vinnie Jones in the upcoming fixture with Wimbledon. Without saying a word, he got up from the table and walked to the entrance of the pub and ripped the door off its hinges."Kinda says it all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear 25 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 What a shot he had on him too. He was more skilful than people give him credit for. I absolutely loved him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
grfc1975 1 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 remember that goal he scored against them? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVB 2,560 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Who ?You stupid boy Pike! He is probably most famous for his combative style of play. He was booked and sent off many times in his career, and amassed a record number of disciplinary points during one season with Rangers. He was a tough, physical player who would probably not suit today's style of non-contact football; he was rated by The Times as the 23rd hardest man in football and a valuable member of midfield. Tony Cascarino: "Some of us [Millwall players] were playfully goading Terry about what he was going to do to Vinnie Jones in the upcoming fixture with Wimbledon. Without saying a word, he got up from the table and walked to the entrance of the pub and ripped the door off its hinges." Neil Ruddock was asked in a magazine Q&A, ‘What’s your favourite animal?’ ‘Terry Hurlock,’ he replied.If memory serves me right, he scored against the mhanky mob at Ibrox and did a Mick Channon type celebration. I may be making it up though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left the hotel thinking he was a really nice friendly guy and that all the stories we had heard where bollox, then he took to the field OMG :chopometer: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcbear 10,913 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 He still gets involved in the travistrek which tells you pretty much all you need to know about the man, after such a short time here he still lends a hand, top man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearAbroad 42 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Decent player, got well stuck in in every game but ended up with a ridiculous amount of bookings over a season. Overall, look back on his time with the Gers quite fondly.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerrysGonnaGetYe 2 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Fond memories myself of that period, it was a nick name given to me by the team (only pub league) I was playing for at the time, I was never too skilful but had the bulk to make life difficult for most opponents, that's what Terry Hurlock did, drain the energy from a team by making them use all their stamina fighting with him.

TheBloubellsAreBlouie 209 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Hurlock was as hard as nails but he was also a very clever footballer. Met him in Victorias in Glasgow on a night out and he was an absolute gem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimfanciesthedude 24,058 Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 If memory serves me right, he scored against the mhanky mob at Ibrox and did a Mick Channon type celebration. I may be making it up though.unsure of the celebration but yeah he scored an equaliser against them at ibroxmind he started a move at the piggery as well by absolutely crunching one of that mob, their player was lying on the ground, hurlock looked up to see if the ref was givign the free kick, seen that he wasnt so started a move that led to coisty scoring and their fans went fucking mental Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DietofWorms 2,040 Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 Hurlock was one of those players who took to playing for The Gers like a duck to water. He especially enjoyed putting the boot into opposition players who were trying to clatter the likes of Walters, Huistra etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurlock was very much the midfield "enforcer" and anyone that wanted to dish it out to our more creative players was sorted out - no messing..Let's just say he wasn't a man to be fucked about with.We had others of course, guys like John Brown and Graham Roberts knew how to handle themselves when the going got tough.Not only were we an outstanding team in those days, I reckon we were also one of the hardest!
