I didn't realise he was the Chelsea youth coach!

ITV4 now, vs Man Utd in the FA Youth cup (Semi final I think)

You learn something new....  Obviously done well for himself with the coaching since quitting playing.

I know it's a youth game but fuck me the marking is non-existant. 

Good one,didn't know either.

Didn't he try his luck with management / player-management a few years back?  Or was it assistant manager?

Just Ciren.

Bit like adi viveash defending then ;)

I'm all for reminiscing about old players and the positives from their game but he was not good.

one of the worst players to wear the shirt. nice fella and good coach though

I don't think it helped that he was competing with Calderwood and Taylor. Pretty much anyone would have looked shite in comparison with those two legends.

I'll always be thankful for Viveash (v Newcastle was it) when Taylor was injured just before the match and Viveash came in and had an absolute stormer.

He was a couple of years below me at WB school. Played striker at school from memory and was way better than anyone else.

I played in a few 5 a-side games with Drysdale, he was head and shoulders above as well. He was shit too.

Knew about the game as I wanted to have another look at Islam Feruz. The boy is a bit special!

He is Scottish isn't he?

Somalian I thought

I watched that last night, the Chelsea lad who came on as a sub - Nortei Nortey, his name made me smile...

I am pretty sure he was coached as a young lad for Celtic and has played in the victory shield matches for the Scots.

Yep...Islam is as Sweatie as the Krankies and the White Heather Club....

He is indeed. The only reason I watched the game! Some very good players on show all around though.

Did a lad called John Swift play last night? Centre mid, long hair with headband.
Was player of the tournament at the milk cup in 2010 and was different class. Should a be a first year scholar now

Yeah, he was excellent.

Thought he would probably play. Fantastic talent and was 15 when i saw him play. Looked to have an age on the ball and did everything superbly, scored goals,distribution top notch and always available to recieve the ball. If he doesn't make pro then i'd be bloody surprised.

Arriba the psychic 8)

I'd take him back this season if we could.

Swifty that is, not Arriba. (although obviously i miss Arriba too)

I recall playing against Adi Vivash over at Dorcan while he was with Town - possible just prior to getting into the first team. Big lad, and a nice bloke, but fucking shocking as a footballer.

Last time I saw him at Dorcan he was wiping blood off his face and spitting splinters of teeth out of his mouth. Him and his mates from Bassett thought they were the boys, but a few of them came off worse when they mixed it up with a psycho in our team that truly didn't give a fuck and battered them after a nasty tackle went in.

Wonderful days :-)

Darren Bullock?

I'm sure in his second spell with us there was a back three of Reeves, Heywood, Viveash for a game. Lightening! He didn't have his best days for us - certainly saw a fair bit of success (as captain?) at the Madjeski.

Cant argue with you on that Friggers as he did achieve success elsewhere.

A fine line between making it as a professional at that level and playing Sunday league.

Hats off if he's part of Jose's back-room team now.

Probably earns enough to have his teeth sorted out anyway.

I remember that game, we lost 3-0 at Saltergate & Andy King said those 3 would never play together again!! Might have been the same game that Sebastian Ruster made his Town debut!!

And I believe after that game, Kingy said they'd never play together again.

...and we made it to the Play-Offs.

A sound decision.

That was the one. Deon Burton up front. I got delayed on the train, got there at HT 3 down and got let in for free. They should have paid me to watch that!

The thread title was making my teeth itch, had to fix it.
