Steve McNulty (Luton CB). Looked like a pub football reject but there was no way through him, round him or over him.


I first remember laying eyes on Steve McNulty in his Fleetwood days, all the way back in 2010 - early in our first season in non-league. I remember thinking “Just how bad can this league get when teams are having to field clinically obese, silver haired 45 year olds just to make up the numbers?”.

Fleetwood won 2-1, McNulty running the show. After the game, I googled him. He was 26.

I thought a few of the Liverpool players were half decent when we lost 5-0 at Anfield  

1     Ray Clemence     
2     Phil Neal     
3     Alan Kennedy     
4     Phil Thompson     
5     Ray Kennedy     
6     Alan Hansen     
7     Kenny Dalglish     
8     Jimmy Case     
9     David Johnson     
10     Terry McDermott     
11     Graeme Souness     


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

I forgot we first encountered him in a wet, windy 2010. The biggest Fleetwood Mac since Rumours.

Dougie Freedman used to fill his boots against Town. Freedman starred for Palace in the 5-0 thrashing in 1996 and then again in the 5-0 in 2001.

The 96 game included a freaky eleven minute Freedman hat-trick. Ray Houghton also haunted us in that match too. Dean Gordon was at left back, Nigel Martyn in goal and the ever dangerous George Ndah up front.

Quoted from Knut Anders Fosters Voles
Kenny Irons / Jason Koumas - Tranmere Rovers


Inter should have replaced an ageing Aron Winter with Sir Paul Groves at the start of 98/99, to form a midfield partnership with Diego Simeone and Pirlo, allowing Ronaldo de Lima to run riot up front and win lo Scudetto.

The huge hole in Town’s midfield would have been replaced with a £6.5m transfer fee and a double swoop on the Plastic Scousers for Irons and Koumas.

Irons was like a smaller Groves, less aerial threat but with long range shooting that would guarantee to replace Groves’ 10-15 goals per season.

Koumas would have prospered on the East Coast riviera but his form would dip post-Christmas after being caught feeding ponies in JD’s or Pier 39.


Ah actually I remember when we played Tranmere and McNab controlled the midfield.

Podge. Unfortunately

Tommy Mooney at Watford

David James at Watford

David Lee at Bury/Bolton

Simon Garner at Blackburn

Edgar Davids at Barnet....how the fck did he play for Barnet !?!?!

Danny Whitaker at Macclesfield, always has time on the ball regardless of how well he was marked.

Have tried to avoid the big names from cup games as you would expect something from them.
