Vance Warner.

The only player I've seen who headed the ball 2" from the ground.

Indeed both Joe and Ivanho were on loan originally.

In fact the supporters started fund raising for both of them, to get Grimsby Town to sign them.
I think I may have a Bonetti shirt somewhere.



I know local runner Brian Jones who founded Cleethorpes AC did a sponsored run from Leicester to Cleethorpes to help raise the funds needed to sign Joe Waters, once it became known that the club couldn't afford the transfer fee.

Or Mikel Antoine Curier (think he was on loan?)


Think he was a short term contract (we were the 6th club he played for that season!)

Big difference between always remember and never forget.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

Thank you Abdul, I can still vividly picture him actually getting away on the byeline and pulling the ball back for one of the goals in the 4-4 away game at Chesterfield

I can vividly recall him playing for Notts Co against us at Meadow Lane and we all thought he was sh*t. He signed for us not long after.

Reputedly the Principle Funder introduced him to the dressing room as "this is the lad that will keep us up".


Miss Scunthorpe. Not a beauty pageant, just sound advice.

Mark Flatts. Did nothing
Alan Miller. Not impressed. Somehow had a good career
Okorie. Think we might have signed him? Strange if we did. What was he like? Decent?
Mendonca. Some big mistakes by other clubs led to him arriving at BP. When I was a 10yr old, mendonca was a superstar. Nothings changed
Nigel jemson. Never actually going to sign but enjoyed watching him. Too good for us at the time
Luke Cornwall. Decent player in a struggling team. Or at least that's how I remember it
Marlon Broomes. How did we sign him?
Steve kabba. Somehow you need to sign players like kabba given the chance


Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong  
Update:  I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly
