    Spoke with Birkenmeier tonight for the first time in a while. What a terrific guy and what a world away it seems we are from the Cosmos at Giants Stadium...

    Re: [NCR] Bobby Thomson

    Great player. Although he nevever played for the Cosmos to my knowledge....

    Here he is playing for the Connecticut Bicentennials in 1977 vs Pele & the Cosmos....

    No, he didn't play for the Cosmos. Thought this thread might reach the most bigsoccer posters who might have known him...

    Some Cosmos from the early 1970s, last I checked...

    Randy Horton is a major government minister in Bermuda.

    Wilberforce Mfum has a coaching position with the Ghanian Men's National Team (good luck in the African Cup of Nations against Egypt).

    Where is Barry Mahy?

    Cheers,

    Steve
