Danny Butterfield.

Nostalgic memories of Jude Stirling and specifically Jude Stirlings long throws, only his long throws in fact.

Butterfield went on to have a good career (& applied for the Town managers job) but based on his 2nd season here Rob Jones was immense.

Phil Jevons for me. Not just for that goal Anfield but some of the other goals he scored were top drawer, and he played for us in the championship and league one.

Jones or Butterfield but as Butterfield played so successfully at a higher level I have to go with him.

Butterfield or Jevons for me. Jevons probably on the basis that we’re short of firepower

Danny Butterfield. Think he was a bit underrated during his time and went on to play at a high level. Remember him having good control with the ball at his feet and being an intelligent player.

Never became very popular when he was at the club though for one reason or another.

Hmm Rob Jones or Phil Jevons...…. RJ & PJ played the similar amount of games and some of Rob Jones's performances were very good, but i'm going for Phil Jevons 63 games 18 goals.

Name          Pos     GTFC Career       App   Gls
Phil Jevons  FW      2001–2004          63      18

Rob Jones   CB       2004–2006          60      5

Danny Butterfield by a mile. Have people forgotten Jones' first season? He had a great second season, agreed. 04/05 he was poor up until about March, though.  Butterfield could have been a legend here if there wasn't one already playing where he played.

Can only be jogging Danny B, surely?

Butterfield was ridiculously under-rated when he was here.  Very, very good in countless positions and it was only because Macca was here that he never made himself a permanent fixture at right-back.  Can't quite remember the season but there was a period when Macca was injured and Butterfield was so good in the 15 or so games that he played there, Macca really struggled to win his spot back.  I think in the end Butterfield was moved to elsewhere in the team to accomodate Macca.  The season we stayed up under Groves when Andy Todd was brought in, Boulding found his goalscoring touch etc.  It was Butterfield who was the most important player in that side for me, he was the one who created so many of the chances that were taken and gave some balance to the midfield that had been lacking for so long.  For whatever reason he never really won the fans over, which is a shame because he was a fantastic player as evidenced by the career he went on to have.  He also sums up how badly run the club have been in the last god knows how many years.  £1million offer from Crystal Palace rejected in the summer of 2001.  Contracts run down that year and joins Palace on a Bosman the summer of 2002, but it's ok because we'll get a fee due to his age....Nope, we failed to offer him a contract that at least matched his previous one - therefore negating any claim to a fee.   Couldn't make it up.

Rob Jones was a one-man colossus in his second season.  He went from Bambi on ice to the most composed and calm defender you'll ever see.  Of the side that got decimated that summer, he and Mildenhall were the two players that we failed to replace and missed the most.  

Jevons, that goal at Anfield aside, never really cut it in the Championship here.  He always just looked a yard too slow to do the business up front.  I suppose in his defence, he was partnered with someone of similar physical attributes and limited experience for large spells when paired with Jonny Rowan.  Treat like absolute crap by the club just because they were stupid enough to give him a large contract.  Came out of the cold and was our only shining light in 04/05.  Left wing suited him much more here (although his record at Yeovil and others suggested he was more than capable of playing in a central role) where he could cut inside.

I'd forgotten that. That £1m could have come in handy with the big hole left by the ITV Digital collapse. Seems member ups have been happening behind the scenes for quite a long time.
