he played upfront for us though so must have been a striker, we bought george ndah as a striker then played him centre midfield.

he was a striker on champ manager aswell and id trust that over wiki anyday  ;)

I cannot remember Jimmy Davis ever playing up front for us. He always played on the wing...so therefore played in midfield.

A selection of terrible loan strikers

Shayne Bradley
Neil Fenn
Kyle Lightbourne
Frank Mcavennie
Mark Mccammon
Alex Rhodes
Jamie Slabber

A few players that were shit for us but went on to have good careers.
John Sutton
Ian Muir
Jo Kuffour
Deon Burton

Paul Rideout - fanastic first time, when he came back on loan he was awful.

Peter Eastoe - one of the best loan signings we ever made, along with Simon Cox.

Craig Moores (if Jimmy Davis is allowed then so is Craig...possibly one of the worst players ever to wear a Town shirt)

I liked Darius Henderson - especially those two goals at Bristol on his debut (they said he was unfit :))
Shame we couldn't sign him

When? My memory is of Ndah being signed form Palace, who played him as a winger, and playing up front for us in a pairing with Iffy.

A strike partnership that generally had defences shitting themselves about their power and pace for the first half an hour, and then relaxing a bit when they realised that neither of them could really finish.

after the season we signed him he started playing centre midfield and making those killer runs from inside our half.

we signed him to replace wayne allison and he did play upfront for the first season he was with us but the second season he started in midfield were his runs where more effective.

Pretty sure Jimmy never played as a forward for us. He was the same era as SSP, Sabin and Invincibile.

Attacking midfielder yeah, winger yeah but not up front i don't think.

King would have never played a midfielder up front. Not when we had centre backs who could be pushed up instead.

The first thing that springs to mind about Iffy is the 20 goals he got in Division 1.
