Ross Hannah was pretty good until he signed permanently and forgot what the offside rule was 😎

Nathan Pond and Connor Townsend for me... Both superb!

Conor Townsend for me, never forget that free kick at BP...bent it round the outside of the wall and into the bottom corner of the net...

Townsend by a country mile.

Pond was excellent and whilst we had decent players in his position afterwards, none were quite as commanding.  But Townsend was just leagues and leagues above that level.

Other notable mentions to Scott Neilson and Ross Hannah.  Marcus Marshall was very good in his first loan spell too.  In the very first season in the Conference Richard O'Donnell was also very impressive.

Generally though our loan players, we had a fair few of them too, were largely disappointing.  I dare say there's quite a few that most of us would struggle to remember at all!

Townsend was a class above. I don't think we'd have been promoted without him.

Apart from him I'd say Brodie and Tomlinson.

I preferred his other one, a last minute effort I think, which went in higher up the goal... and Scott had the audacity to say it was about time he delivered!

If Townsend or Pond had stayed the full season in either of their respective seasons, we’d have come much closer to winning the league.

Was Manny Panther a loan player or someone we signed on a short-term deal? Not saying he was one of the best, but I remember we were a bit disjointed in midfield until he came in and settled things down with Dizza.

Same goes for Will Antwi. Think he brought a bit of stability at the back when we were still trying to adjust to life in non-league.
