Was the umpteenth new george best.but decent for us,could take a pen!
Achieved the rare feat of scoring a hat trick of pens v Walsall. Not sure if he's the only player in our history to do that, certainly the only one in my time. |

Yeah I was at that game, mental. I've never seen it since for us. If there is a list of who has scored the most against us, I bet Buckley is at the top, the bastard  |

Great childhood memories of that mid 70's team Anderson, Moss, Mchale, Prophett, Syrett, Dixon et al. Those cup games against Fulham and Everton - oh to have a similar cup run any time soon to get the juices flowing.

Wilf Dixon would be brilliant in this team as a minder for our midfield. Nails.

By coincidence, I was reminding myself of this game* earlier today, which featured four of those (alnong with some other greats like Burrows, Butler and Trollope). I was at the game and remember well the pull back on Anderson when he was through on the keeper but we got the last laugh with Eastoe's equaliser. *Edit - Having trouble posting a simple url link to the Youtube footage of the 1975 cup tie between West Ham and Town. Getting that black bar again!  |

Funny, I've never really got in a cold sweat about Beckford. Apart from the last time, can't really remember him ever scoring against us. |

Alan Shearer was our nemesis for a couple of seasons. 4 games for Blackburn and scored twice against us in each one. Same boring celebration every time too. |

If we did an all time 11 of hard men who have turned out for us, there are 3 shoe ins there with Mchale, Phrophett, and Dixon, only slight hesitance with dixon, is that he'd be up against Rambo for the RB spot.. |

Talking of hard men. Darren Bullock, Scott Leith and Steve Mcmahon would be a formidable midfield trio. Ruddock and ooh Shaun Taylor centre backs with Sol Davis left back.

I'm sure he's a terribly good footballer and all that but where has all excitement regarding Keshi Anderson's ability coming from? I see a loan move unfortunately cut short by injury and the rest is an impressive Non-League record (which Jermaine Hylton also has).
I genuinely know very little about this kid other than Doncaster really want him too.

All I know is he used to play for Barton Rovers; now if you're heading from the east of England, towards the west and wish to avoid Luton, then there's a decent round the houses route through Barton le Clay. If he turns into something, Hatters' fans are going to wonder how they missed out.....much like on Kevin Phillips. |
