Kevin Drinkall from the distant past and Harry Clifton for a future legand. You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Almost 450 appearances and must have been captain for most of that time as well, I expect. He has to be considered a legend, alongside Macca from that era. The likes of Gilbert, Childs and Livvo were very good players for us, by Groves played almost twice as many games as any of them and scored twice as many goals, to boot. Remarkable from a central midfield position. Birtles and Futch were ace while we had them, but neither we here long enough to be called 'legends'. McKeown a good player for us for a long time but I'm not sure he'd be considered a 'legend', given that a lot of his games were in Non-League.

He used to put a shift in on the pitch then could be found calling the bingo in the amusement arcade on Beacholme in Humberston. Like many footballers back in the day, they didn't earn big money and many had second jobs.
