George asked me this:

Hi can you hope me settle a bet was Jason Trinder ever on the bench as a sub keeper?


Anyone know?

Highly doubtful. He was only at Town during the 1992/93 season & that season we had Paul Sherwood, Rhys Wilmot & Paul Reece at the club as well as a loan spell for Dave Beasant.

And I’m not sure whether it was still 2 subs only back in 1992/93.

Just checked & the third substitute (goalkeeper) was introduced at the start of the 1994/95 season. This was amended the following season to remove the rule that one of the subs had to be a goalkeeper.

So no, Jason Trinder wouldn’t have been on the bench because sub goalkeepers weren’t a thing in the Football League back then.

Ha Ha, I bet you can't remember Paul Woods or Paul Woodhouse either?  ;)

Paul Sherwood now working with another ex GTFC man of course: https://www.jrp.co.uk/meet-the-team/paul-sherwood/

Trinder was a really good player (on Championship Manager 2!)
