His son has signed for our yoof team. I remember he tormenting us for Sheffield Wednesday. I thought he was a decent player in his day but he didn't really make it to the big time. http://www.grimsby-townfc.co.u.....otsteps-3723790.aspx

I remember Terry Curran playing for us in the mid 1980s  (Bobby Roberts season I think).

We all wanted him to do for us what he used to do against us... but it never happened.


Batch, K.Moore, Waters, Wiggington, Crombie, Brolly, Ford, Drinkell, Mitchell, Cumming, Kilmore. D.Moore, Stone, Liddell. ....1979/80..... now that WAS a team.

Terry Curran was a good player. I remember him as a winger.  He scored against us for Wednesday when he ran at our defence, skipped a couple of tackles and hammered in the back of the net at the Osmond end.

He was one of those players that enjoyed winding the crowd up, so he was always the target of the opposition fans.

(through gritted teeth)  he was a good player, with a bit of a swagger about him.

He was an excellent winger for Wednesday and often gave us a torrid time, but when he signed for us he was past it and pretty much useless.

He must have played for every club in and around Yorkshire and surrounding areas at his peek he was a top player but only came here towards the end of his career.

The consummate journeyman.

Curran, Beagrie,  Brodie......players who have shined against us .....done nothing when signed for us, we have had them all on their way down...a bit like Proudlock and Peacock...players who were once dangerous but by the time we could attract them we were signing old glories not their current capability.

I'd rather forget him.

You cant include Brodie, as Paul Hurst had a hand in signing him and according to some one here PH only signed great players.

I remember (and surely I can't be the only one), the Pontoon taunting him with the song "Terry Curran sh1ts his underpants", whilst playing for Wednesday at BP.
