Very tough call, loved Kevin Donovan but I’m going to go for Alan Pouton. His energetic, box to box, tough tackling yet skilful style was a joy to watch and would get the crowd going with just a step over or a thundering challenge. People have been saying for years that they’d love to see a Pouton type midfielder again, and that just swings it for me.


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

Quoted from Tommy
Donovan.

At the minute, looking like we're heading for the 98 double squad but with Coyne in for Davison.


Exactly - all a bit of a waste of time really

Donovan.


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

Pouton.

Donovan was fantastic in that one season and then never really rediscovered that form.  Was The Fishy even around in 1997/98?  

The following season I think he scored once and was miles away from repeating his goalscoring in the following seasons.  I can remember not feeling all that bothered that he had left when he did, feeling far more excited that we had signed Stuart Campbell permanently with the intention of him taking over that right wing slot.
