Was talking to my old man the other day about Town affairs etc, and we got talking about opposition players that have caught your eye.  My dad says one player that caught his eye was the Wycombe winger (cant remember his name) who terrorised towns defence, he was fast, skilful and always looking to run at the defence.  He looked like Ryan Babbel.

Jermaine Jenas - vs Forest (15/09/01)

0-0 but Jenas controlled the match from the base of midfield. Still only 18, it looked like Jenas was going to mature into a Busquets style metronomic passing bunny.

Like most English midfielders, once he hit the PL, he developed into more of a generic Platt/Gerrard/Robson box-to-box beagler.

We still struggle to develop deep midfielders who can also play, so we are left with Dier, Rice and Chalobah.

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.

Also the game where Jonny Rowan managed to put one over the bar from an inch!

Off the top of my head:
Andy Lonergan (probably in the same game as Betsy)
Steve Bull (hat-trick in the opening game of 96-97)
Nathan Pond
Aaron Lennon

Oh, and Sam Russell (winner of the best timed contract extension in history), obvs.

Town 1 - 5 West Ham (1981)

David Cross and West Ham were awesome, Cross scored 4 that day.



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

Clive Walker had trick for Chelsea when we drew 3_3 at home.

We bossed the game but he stood out and kept bloody scoring.
