Title: Quiz question............
Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, March 3, 2005, 19:45:58
.......which two players who've appeared for the Town, have at some time held the record for the youngest player to appear in the FA Cup (Proper Rounds, not qualifying?

Hmmm I'll start with pure guesses.

James Milner & Paul Allen?

That's the spirit.....Milner was the youngest scorer in the Prem....don't think he is now.

 Paul Allen was the youngest to appear in a cup final, but a Milwall player took that.

  Curtis Weston was the lad.

Paul Rideout?

No....although I think he still holds the record for youngest STFC debutant...although James Williams may have a claim to that.

I'll guess at Ernie Hunt.

Not Ernie although he was probably 16 when he played v  Walsall in 59.....the player was 15 and something and it wasn't for the Town.

  Lee Holmes was 15 and 200 odd days when playing for Derby and currently holds the record, which he took from this fella.

Here was me thinking this was an easy one........especially as the answer is on the Banyard site.......Scott Endersby, whilst playing for Kettering aged 15 and something.

 He's one of Kettering's most famous people, for holding the record for some years.

Reg, do you know what happened to him after leaving Swindon, I seem to remember him having a big falling out with Lou Macari and he wouldn't play in the cup game against Sheff Wed, and Macari said he would never play for Swindon again.

  You're right he had a falling out with Lou, so we got in Richard Key for the Sheffield game, who at the time was a student ex keeper.

 I seem to remember him then going off in a huff to train with Plymuff where his old mate Garry Nelson was :gay:

 He didn't play for them and eventually we loaned him to Carlisle and he later signed for them.......then York City.

Cheers for that, decent goalie if I remember, but if that hadn't happened we wouldn't have had Kenny Allen and then Fraser for 12 years. :mrgreen:
