In my local paper that Ted has been inducted into the Raith Rovers Hall of Fame. Already in the Dundee and Hibs ones.

The article does remind us that he came back with them to haunt us in a Scottish Cup tie.

I could be wrong, but I think Keith's, Ted nickname was as a windup that he looked like Ted Rodgers from the 321 gameshow ;-)

I thought it was because he was a striker. But did Goram not say it was he would bore you to death

This one correct! When he arrived from Dundee his nickname was the *****ose I suppose Benny Brazil was still fresh in my people’s memories so it was decided to call him Ted as he had a similar running style hands at his side to Ted The Tin Man McMinn.Would I lie to you?

The deleted word nickname is a small rodent type creature with sharp features and instincts that kills snakes for fun in India.
