Thank you for posting this. It's a real eye opener to hear the stories from the players themselves. You get to watch them but we don't know what they are like off the pitch. The one thing that comes out of it is how there's always a camourarady which is away nice to hear.

Good read that

Interesting that they had a drinking culture about the club then... maybe Mike Newell could have done better with us in the 90s

I got told Lawsy and Bonetti were both ‘entertaining’ a lady from the office and that’s what it was all about!

That came from a player at that time, no prizes for guessing who lol

I watched it a few months ago and thought Lawsy came across as quite a decent bloke , The Bonetti incident certainly effected his time with us as I remember us being near the top for a spell before it happened and we had a great side

I've always wondered what might have been had the Bonnetti incidence never happened. We were playing to full houses, playing well. Bonnetti was only the second Italian to play in the Football League, after some other Italian at Forest, which put us in the spotlight. It quickly went downhill after.
