JPKK for me. Great memories of that goal v Spurs, even though Simon Francis went on to become an established Premier League player.

'Kin Hell!!!!

Err, Ford showed loads of potential in his first spell and then couldn't be arsed.
JPK scored some great goals for us (Spurs one the obvious one but the stand out one for me is when he nearly broke the crossbar at home to Notts County) but then went missing, probably once he got bombed out the team.
Simon Francis has definitely had the best career out of all of those, a very decent central defender/right back - Slade had him on the right wing so we could hoof it out to him.
Osborne a definite 'could have been' type.
Suliman probably the only guy to go from winning the World Cup to sitting in the stands behind Nathan Clarke and Karleigh Osbourne in the space of 9 months.
Nick Fenton would have been a very good defender if he realised his limitations and stopped trying to be Franz Beckenbauer and/or trying to wrestle guys in the penalty area.
Tyrone Thompson - god, reminds me of when we seemed to have a different midfielder every week.


I'm going to go for Craig Clay.  Not the best player but his role in the promotion from the Conference is often understated.  It was his tireless and selfless displays against Braintree and then at Wembley that allowed Jon Nolan to have the freedom to dictate play so much.

JPKK, closely followed by Clay who always put in a good shift. Barely remember half of the others.

Not sure, no one outstanding, probably Ford as he was still young playing in an at times poor team, if not Osborne for the way the club  (especially he who I wish to forget) probably shafted him.

Kalala, as stated because of the Spurs goal.

Simon Ford was class though first time round and let’s not forget Simon Francis who is playing in the Premier League days, looked solid in his month here

Tough one. I remember Ford being decent and JPKK scoring that goal.

Ford gets it because he was decent at a higher level

Osborne. What might have been. Great player squeezed out by bad management. I think we should have one place in the squad to remind us of the bad days.

Disley left before it went sour. Osborne went as part of Slade's clear out of talent. In my mind I associate it with the tailspin the club went into after the fan's forum.

Kalala for that Spurs goal


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best
