Jim Montgomery was a superb goalkeeper. He could do it all, one on one's, saved more penalties than conceded. England youth and under 23 keeper. Total injustice that he was never capped at full level. It was England's loss as much as Monty's. He was the star man in the majority of Sunderland's games. Reflexes that even Bruce Lee would have been proud of. His weakness was goal kicks. He often screwed the ball off the park but Hey no one's perfect. Monty and Schmeichel the best 2 keepers ever!!!
I'm not a Sunderland fan, and I wouldn't even be born for another 14 and a half years, yet Jim Montgomery's save is my favourite ever. My eyes popped out of my head when I saw that footage for the first time on the BBC's Match of the 70s.
