Title: Big Ben Martin
Post by: Dazzza on Thursday, March 17, 2005, 19:54:55
Now plays for Barton Rovers est 1982.  Not quite a pub team by the looks of it.  

Possibly the dodgiest King signing ever?

Ah well. Not as if he was on a high wage so can't moan at King for having a go can you?!

King's record in this department is crap....consider a Macari who got Brian Wade and Colin Gordon from non league and they became useful pro players...I suppose if you punt often enough your likely to get one right , then again we could have got Eastwood but we got Opara.

Wasn't Ben Martin a family friend of King?
