Didn't Warhurst play centre forward for a few years at a higher level  (IIRC), maybe thats how he claimed the no.9


Yeah, I think David Hirst & Mark Bright missed a good chunk of the 1992-93 season injured and Paul Warhurst (a centre-back to that point) filled the void and scored at rate of about a goal a game and earned an England cap as a striker. I seem to remember he played the 1993 FA Cup Final wearing number 9 (last season before squad numbers introduced) but playing as a centre-back as Hirst & Bright were both fit (and wore 5 & 10 respectively) and Sheff Wed had a few defenders injured.

He then joined Blackburn where he played mainly as a midfielder.

Did he? I know that he was called up to the squad once but I don't think he actually played did he?

Hendrie’s contract expired last Wednesday. Technically he’s no longer a Town employee.

I have no idea how old you are but under Nicky Law in 2004 we had at least one match where we had a centre back wearing 9 (Paul Warhurst) and the left back wearing 7 (Craig Armstrong) whilst our left winger wore 3 (Darren Barnard).

And the famous 4-4 at Chesterfield match in front of a 4,444 crowd we ended up with 7 & 9 as centre backs after Greg Young’s shoulder popped out the 2nd time and he had to go off injured.


I was having a good day and then you went and mentioned Nicky Law.......

We still missing a number 3 , 7 and 9 so at least a left back, another winger and striker.  Plus 17 and 20 not filled so could be another 5+ signings.

Hopefully starting tomorrow.
