Stan Bowles when he played for Crewe in 71/72 season scoring a fantastic winning goal and. I remember Bobby Ham scoring 4 at BP in a 5-1 win in the late 60’s.

He certainly brought home the bacon that day!

He was certainly a cut above the others!!! Should have said he was playing for Bradford City. The black winger for Notts County could have been John Chidoze (not sure of the spelling) who I think went on to join Spurs but like many others never fulfilled his potential.

Toto Nsiala playing for Southport when we drew 0-0 at home with them in Feb 2014.

He was absolutely immense and that game was perhaps why we signed him in the summer.

Aswad Thomas playing for Braintree in March 2012, the occasion when there was the woman who was supposed to have racially abused him and who too became our player in the summer.

Hurst had a bit of a penchant for signing players who had stormers against us. You can add the likes of Jack Mackreth, Christian Jolley and Dominic Vose to that list. I guess that’s what you do when you have little in the way of a scouting network in place.

Other than those already mentioned in here, I think it was Glen Little at Wrexham a couple of years before we got promoted that ran the midfield and our players didn't get near him for the whole game despite him being about 40!

Sam Russell stood out for years. McNulty has always been class every time I've seen him, despite his frame.

Aside from obvious ones, I always liked Labadie from Newport too.

There was a couple of players I wished played for Town during the late 80's early 90's, Southends Brett Angel and Dion Dublin when at Cambridge, and in more recent times that forward that played for Oldham Sturridge I think his name was and the forward for Swindon who scored against us (rang rings around us) Woolery.

I remember Bobby Ham playing against us.  Also Stan Bowles for Crewe at BP on a wet Tues night.  He just waltzed round our players, not affected by the race n and mud. Great balance and skills.

This is going back a long, long way, but I do remember watching Town play Bournemouth in the early 70's when they had a young winger called Harry Redknapp playing for them who I thought looked useful. Don't know what happened to him!Also in the 70's, Oldham had a winger called Alan Groves who looked good against us. Sadly, he died of a heart attack at 29.
