I got the wrong match it could have been away to Wrexham 16-4-1977 we lost  3-2.

They were both 16 I am sure.

I think this is the right game. Was the last match of the season and Drinkell - aged 16 - scored them both iirc.

Well according to Wiki Terry was born in 1958 so they were never 16 at the same time albeit if they did score in that game both would have been teenagers.

Kevin Drinkell was two "school years" younger than Terry Donovan. I was in the same sixth form as Terry and when we were 18 we played a Whitgift under 16s team which included Kev Drinkell. That Whitgift team included several excellent local footballers who played later for Crows Nest in the Sunday League.
I'm pretty sure Terry didn't sign for Town until after our A-Levels so summer of 76. He certainly didn't sign whilst at school. He was playing for Louth United.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

Thanks Barra thought He played for Louth in Lincs League when I played against them for Market Rasen, thought it was 76 so my memory is still intact for now. Let’s all hope this crop of youngsters does as well for town as the Donovan, Drinkell era but no doubt any signs of promise from these young lads will see them gobbled up by the Academy systems from Premiership and Championship clubs a la Burrell.
