Is Vernham still with us?


Injured, gone back to Derby. Don't think he will play again this season.

Quoted from KingstonMariner


Pollock was in my fantasy football team that was made up of ex-Town players and fish-themed players. Won the Cup and 2nd in the work league that year.  


He was actually on trial with us, possibly during the Lennie Lawrence era where every player without a contract had a trial for us.   I think it was towards the end of his career, which he retired from quite young.  I saw him in a couple of reserve games where he stood out a mile with his technique and ability.  He was just three-stone too heavy and looked every part the stereotype of the Sunday League midfielder who has good feet for a big lad.

My memory could be playing tricks on me but I'm sure we had Carl Leaburn on trial at the same time.  His strike record is something that even our strikers would turn their noses up at.

From Pollock's Wiki page...

"Personal life
After his short-lived spell as a football manager, he is now concentrating on his personal training company"
