It's a big call to label him (I presume Alfie?) the greatest ever. Personally I don't get that as the game has changed so much over the decades that a great player now may not even have made it years ago!

Even though that was said about Thurston when he came up as a kid, he had at least the height and a bit of a frame to put some size on. It's a shame but I can't see that in Ackroyd. Anyway, people who know him and see much more than me must have thought he wouldn't make it at this level.
