Beasant was pure class , if my memory serves me right at the time he played for us  we were in the promotion places for Division One (or the Premier League as it became ) ............the rumour at the time was that the Board refused to sanction paying for a further loan and we then slipped down the table . My memory is not the best though so can anyway else remember if that was the case

Just checked The Bible/Dave Wherry's Official History.  2 goals in 6 games for Jemson.

4 games paired with Clive.  2 wins and 2 draws.  We scored 10 goals in those games.  That season we finished 16th but only 12 points off the play-offs, but picked up just 4 points from our last 21 (scoring two goals) and 8 from our last 30.


Think we played Barnsley and absolutely tore them a new one with jemson/mend on a up front. 4-0/4-2 rings a bell.

His loan spell ended in late November, he was back in the Chelsea starting eleven in the New Year, so maybe it was never on the cards.

I remember reading in Alan Buckley's book that feelers were put if Chelsea had anyone they could loan us, probably expecting a young lad (we must have had some link there as Nick Colgan joined the year after on loan) and was surprised when Beasant was put forward.

Either way, we won 6 out of his 7 games here (other game was a draw with West Ham).  After he went back we lost 4 on the spin and even that run of defeats came with Steve Sherwood back in goal.

Southend at home?  4-0 win, 2 a piece for Clive and Gary Childs.  Was Jemson's last game.

We beat Barnsley 4-2 the season before at home on Boxing Day - Gilbert (2), Groves & Watson.

What's wrong with starting a new thread if you want to discuss former Town players?



There is an Ex-players thread specifically for people to talk about former Town players.

If we're being really fussy, maybe all of the Ryan Bennett talk should be in there too?

It was Rhys Wilmott who was in goal after Beasant had gone back.

Yeah I remember one of the first games after Beasant returned to Chelsea, an away loss to Wolves and Wilmotts flapping at a corner costing us a goal.

Wilmot was always flapping about. Mind you I was stood behind his goal when he saved a penalty at Barnsley.

Didn't we actually sell Wilmott for a profit, though? I remember being flabbergasted when he went!

Somewhat bizarrely, he did go on to make an FA Cup final appearance for Premier League Crystal Palace not long after.
