Shame Fenton was given a free transfer and replaced by Heywood/Hope.

Hang on, that list is missing the best player of them all. The sort of striker we have been missing for God knows how long.

Please don’t post stuff like this make me miss distinctly average players over the current dross. I’ve not played a game of 11-a-side in about 7 years, suffer with runner’s knee and drink far too many units per week but I still fancy that I’m a better footballer in the majority of positions than the current squad.

Me and my bro were discussing the parlous state of footballers now, and we both agreed that either of us, or some of the players we played with could control and pass a football better than some pro's seem to be able to nowadays. I'm absolutely certain that either of us could hit a better dead ball than some of the players we have had in recent years.

There were some Sunday League players around when i was playing who would have a fair chance of getting into our team right now, and i'm being deadly serious. The standard now is shocking.

It’s evident in this thread. Danny Boshell was one of the weakest footballers I’d seen at Town when we had him - I’d have him back here in a flash now. 6 goals from centre midfield in an average season for us - 6 more than the current lot have got.

Yeah, it's shows the demise of football further down the league's in just a decade, i'm almost certain this current side would have got relegated 10 years ago. Having seen Danny North play a handful of times this season for Clee Town, i'm sure if he was still training full-time he would still get in this side, what a sorry state of affairs it is.

I'd even take Hegarty over either Woolford or Kelly.


I'd take Hegarty in the side full stop. Under-rated player. And a real trier. We could do with that Heggativity now.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Justin Whittle was a fantastic player .....not in the same class as Chris Nicoll or Kev Moore but still a great servant for Town.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I can not ever remember a time following Town that I actually didn't have a favourite player. There are none at the moment.

Knew it was the beginning of the end after watching those two play. Would probably fit right in with the team we have right now. Slow,incapable of doing anything but hoofing the ball and barely resembling a footballer.

Heywood is one of if not the worst player we've ever had imo not including loans.
