Post by: Doore on Monday, January 4, 2010, 20:40:07 Cheers leefer, that's a good read. He would always be in my favourite town XI. The best crosser I've ever seen.

Title: Re: Buzzer. Post by: BANGKOK RED on Monday, January 4, 2010, 20:43:37 He had a strong shot on him too Leef The strongest shot. He held or maybe still holds the guinness record for the strongest shot. I was sat their watching Roy Castle do his stuff one day and one he came, our buzzer, and he broke the world record. Title: Re: Buzzer. Post by: Dazzza on Monday, January 4, 2010, 20:44:47 Good read that! Shame we didn't sign up permanently the 2nd time round.

I was sat their watching Roy Castle do his stuff one day and one he came, our buzzer, and he broke the world record. Wasn't it something like 82mph? Title: Re: Buzzer. Post by: Doore on Monday, January 4, 2010, 20:49:00 Shame we didn't sign up permanently the 2nd time round. No - would have slightly spoiled the memories of how good he was first time round. Never go back, in this case, holds true. Title: Re: Buzzer. Post by: Dazzza on Monday, January 4, 2010, 20:55:21 Was he injured that season? I remember he came in on loan from Bradford having been one of their better players the season before and had the most assists (according to the FL site anyway).
The one game he played he did ok mind. Title: Re: Buzzer. Post by: 4D on Monday, January 4, 2010, 20:56:07 The strongest shot. He held or maybe still holds the guinness record for the strongest shot. I was sat their watching Roy Castle do his stuff one day and one he came, our buzzer, and he broke the world record. Just read somewhere that David Hirst hit a shot recorded at 114 mph :eek: and that Buzzers was 87 mph. Title: Re: Buzzer. Post by: Rich Pullen on Monday, January 4, 2010, 20:58:45 Nicky Summerbee was my favourite player back then. It was great that he came back for one game and it was great that we won said game - that was enough though.

Title: Re: Buzzer. Post by: iffy on Monday, January 4, 2010, 22:30:55 From that interview:
The first two years at Swindon I came across somebody who put the fire in my belly. At first he told me to go away and improve because I wasn’t good enough. I actually considered packing it in then and then thinking that it wasn’t the game for me. But I worked hard and proved him wrong. I really enjoyed that. Macari or Ardiles? This (http://www.soccerbase.com/players_details.sd?playerid=7718) says Buzzer only started at Swindon in July 89, which is more or less when Macari left. So was it Ossie? Title: Re: Buzzer.
