He didnt start well at Swindon though did he? Took him a good 3 months to get into it.

He was a liability at Port Vale in november (?), then our best player from christmas to the end of the season.

I remember meeting a Brentford director a month or so after we loaned Fola to them, and asked how he was getting on there. He replied, with a grimace, "You really stitched us up there, didn't you?" (or words to that effect). I took that to mean he hadn't been a smash hit

Was just wondering if any Swindon Fans could tell us anything about Ben Joyce, 19 year old striker you released this summer. He's on trial with us at the moment and scored 2 tonight in the first PSF.

Blair Sturrock looked ok whilst he was here, he was a clever player and had a good all round game, but was never outstanding. His partnership with Tim Sills didn't work as they both have no pace, so I was happy when we didn't go after him permanently.

Albert Jarrett at Barnet.


Torquay   0 - 1   Barnet


Albert Adomah's audacious free-kick and a superb display by keeper Jake Cole earned Barnet victory at Torquay.

Adomah struck in the 27th minute, curling in a free-kick from wide out on the left following a foul by Chris Todd on Albert Jarrett.

Cole kept out winger Mustapha Carayol's shot and made a spectacular stop from Nicky Wroe's goal-bound effort.

The Bees keeper then stopped Carayol's in his tracks before tipping Wroe's 83rd minute 25-yarder on to the post.

Jim Whitley - who had a short loan period with us - has been forced to hang up his boots after a serious knee injury.  Taken up show business and he is now touring the country in a musical "The Rat Pack Vegas Spectacular" where he performs as Sammy Davis Jnr.

100% true http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/7255311.stm (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/7255311.stm)

Quote
Former Manchester City midfielder Jim Whitley is treading the boards as an all-singing, all-dancing stage star.

A serious knee injury sustained two years ago has halted his footballing career and, although he has not given up hope of playing again, the 32-year-old can currently be seen as Sammy Davis Jr in the tribute act The Rat Pack's Back.

"It's all a bit bizarre," Whitley admitted to BBC Sport.

"My brother-in-law, Dave Simpson, has a play out called Naked Truth and the producer of that show needed someone to play Nat King Cole for a show called Christmas Crooners. I went for an audition and got the part."

Whitley toured Britain and Ireland with Christmas Crooners before being asked to take on the role of Sammy Davis Jr.

"I'm singing and dancing with singers who have sung in the West End and sometimes I wonder what the hell am I doing but I enjoy it," he said.

"I've not been doing it for that long, so at the moment it's still like a hobby and I'm still taking each day as it comes."

Just looking at Woking FC and happened to see that Wayne O'Sullivan was in the Hendon side that lost 5-0 to Woking in the last FA Cup round

"Sam-Yorke had another effort stopped by Reading before lively substitute Wayne O’Sullivan was sent clear for the home side. He managed to round Worner before tumbling over and the referee awarded another penalty, letting Worner off lightly by only booking him. However, O’Sullivan hit the top of the crossbar having sent Worner the wrong way."

He came through our youth team, made 80-90 appearances for us (and then similar amounts for Cardiff and Plymuff) before heading out to Australia and NZ.  He's been back here a couple of years and is obviously winding down

He was quite promising and skilful and already strating to lose his hair on leaving the youth team -  not a MacMahon type if I recall and probably played a little above his ability or confidence level.

I thought he was too Leefer, i knew he was working over there for a while (after playing).

Having checked out the websites for the teams over there though, he's not with them.

And if this is correct seems to show that he is back in the country.

http://www.soccerbase.com/players_details.sd?playerid=5952

It's not completely up to date but other google searches suggest he's moved back to Hendon, this only goes up to 2008.

Title: Re: The Ex Swindon Town Player Where Are They Now Thread
Post by: RedRag on Thursday, October 29, 2009, 00:02:02
Looks like I've looked at Wiki and Soccernet to verify Wayne was indeed playing for Hendon and added to the sum of S**t on the net...so well checked.

Christy, if your mate is still worried about a problem about a girl, it looks like there might be some more probs in Newcastle, Australia where it appears Wayne is managing in women's soccer in the W-League at a televised level.

"ABC TV Match of the Day: Live ABC1 and ABC HD

Perth Glory v Newcastle Jets, Saturday October 10, 3:00pm (AEDT), Members Equity Stadium

Sparks are sure to fly in Perth on Saturday with the Glory and Jets to go head-to-head in round two.............................In the Newcastle camp, coach Wayne O'Sullivan is bringing in a number of new faces but the side has lost striker Tara Andrews, who is also away on international duty."

I read elsewhere that he had earned a 2 year contract as one of a number of coaches in I believe the A league which was due to expire last May.

Could be more shit reserach but on reflection a bit more plausible than turning up at Hendon as a striker!

Quote
Aberdeen had an afternoon to forget as they crashed 3-0 to Celtic at Parkhead and for the third straight away game they had a player red carded. The culprit this week was Jerald Ifil for a lunge at Samaras that was missed by the referee, but spotted by his assistant.

From their official site in case anyone was wondering. I think Jerald must be his brother!

Shame Migz was so injury prone -

He signed for Swindon Town of the English Division Two in July 2002, after a successful trial spell earned him a contract. He appeared in 126 league games including playoffs (136 in all competitions), with Swindon Town in four seasons with the club. Miglioranzi scored nine career goals for the club before heading to the Galaxy in the summer of 2006. 1999-2002: Miglioranzi signed with Portsmouth of English Division One and spent three seasons at Fratton Park. He appeared in just 25 games during an injury-plagued tenure with the club, scoring twice. Prior to signing with Portsmouth, Miglioranzi had a three-month trial with Everton of the English Premier League

Pook has found his level at a poor League Two club. It can be argued that his best season at Swindon was in the 4th Division.

However, it's March and this is pretty much the first time this season that Pook has done anything of note despite playing a decent amound of games.

Craig Easton was and still is a better player than Michael Pook.

In delightfully random news, Matt Hewlett came into my work today to talk to my boss, who's a Bristol City fan. After he left, I asked my boss why he was there and apparently he now runs a Sandwich store and delivery service in Bristol with his brother.

I told my boss the story about him leaving, but couldn't remember which way round the alleged issue between Gurney and Hewlett was- am I correct in thinking it was the way round you wouldn't expect? He (boss, not Hewlett) found it hilarious in any case.

I've never understood why Jerel's managers haven't had one member of the midfield whose job was specifically to go and get the ball from him.

Something along the lines of "right Dave, under no circumstances allow Jerel to play the ball more than 4 feet."

You've go to wonder what goes through his mind just before one of his punts "this has never worked before, but what the hell!"

He turned down a contract with Walsall as it was only a year to go on trial at a SPL side but didnt get taken on.

On the 7th July 2009 Walsall manager Chris Hutchings revealed that Zaaboub had left the club. Hutchings told the official website: ""I received a phone call late on Wednesday from Sofiene informing me that another club wanted to take him on a three-day trial. He was told that if he did not report for training as agreed his contract offer would be taken away as I only want people here who are committed to the club." 

The rest is history, as is Zaaboub's football career.

He didn't consistently produce did he. The game that stands out for me was Cheltnum away, I think it was our 1st away game the season after promotion, the Town fans were boisterous (still celebrating re-joining lge 1) & Sofi was really turning it on. I remember we were saying on the way out of that game that we'd never keep hold of him if he kept that form up. He didn't.

A bit off topic, but I think the way Sam's career has panned out is a real shame.  The player we saw had so much potential, he exuded class beyond his years and the level he was playing at.  I think early injury problems at Ipswich really ruined a great opportunity for him, and perhaps he has never really recovered from that.

I think for me I will always remember the Parkin era. He was one of very few players that actually gave a shit about this club during some dark days under the old ownership. We weren't really very successful at all (except the play-off season in 2004) but he stuck with us for 3 years and kept banging in the goals. His attitude was top notch. I'm sure he'll get a superb reception today but let's hope he doesn't fucking score.

For Parkin to hang around at STFC for 3 seasons, and bang in over 20 goals every season when the Club was in the state that it was in....

Until the current team started to get together over the last year and a bit (& Cox last season), Parkin stood out absolutely head & shoulders on his own when you look at the last decade or so. Not one single other player in a Town shirt has come even close to being called anything like memorable in a long long time. What Mooney did for that 1 season was (in my mind) completely nullified by his next 'career' decision. Some people say that Invincibile is a legend for THAT goal vs Peterborough, but he was an inconsistent, lazy fucking crim most of the time, and judging by what I saw on tv the other day (Kilmarnock/Aberdeen) he hasn't changed one bit.

Parkin gave us 1 thing to smile about - for a significant amount of time - during some grim ol' days.

Yeh it's the sequence of injuries that have done for the poor sod. Ipswich's home fans thought he was a joke before he broke his ankle, but he'd had a decent start overall because but he'd banged in a few goals away from home. Without that terrible injury there's nothing to suggest that he wouldn't have been a hero for Ipswich & gone on from there - guess we'll never know for sure.

Gutted for him.

Whoops...thought he was right back...but then there's Caddis.  He seesm to have dropped out of the reckoning at Celtic again since lennon took over.  Not trying to undermine Manks who has had an excellent season by all accounts...but two decent right backs (including caddis who is flexible I think) would be good for the championship.

Personally I think it is about time that Don was give some sort of official regcognition for what he done for the town all those years ago, his commitment to youth football now and to the town with business that he runs in the town.

I wonder if Sam could cut it as a coach with particular responsibility for strikers? If so, would STFC be interested? Might be a good appointment for PR as well as keeping all the "Bring back Sam'ers" happy, always providing that he was primarily useful as part of the coaching team.

It's certainly the only ground where I've seen the Town players given a guard of honour by our opposing team. It was the next game after we'd sealed the 85-86 Div 4 title at Mansfield..........just looked that game up out of interest, and I note that Bobby Barnes and Gary Johnson were in the Aldershot team that night.

True - but I've always felt that the right attitude or work-rate shouldn't really be used as an attribute - it should be the bare minimum, a "given" as it were.  To me its just professionalism - trying your best to do your job to the best of your abilities.

Quite a few players seem to get by on this for a while.  Believe me, put me in a town shirt and my attitude and work rate will be fucking brilliant.  You won't like me though, because I'm shit at football.

It may seem like a bare minimum to you and i, but the fact that we're debating whether or not it is a good attribute to have in a player means it isn't always there. I bet I can list as many talented players who haven't "made it" as you can list shit players with a decent attitude that have.

Matthew "Monster" Heywood has signed a one year deal with Barrow.

http://www.barrowafc.com/newsite/club/news.php?article=614

Monster? The only thing monster about him is his man boobs. No doubt his pal Robin Hulbert had something to with this. I hated Matt Heywood...probably because he started on me in the Casbah for no reason once.

Once he gets a football brain he will probably be a class player.  Unfortunately we got sent a couple of good young prospects last year who had power, pace and a certain amount of skill yet need to be sharpened up in terms of footballing brain.

Now thats fine for a team in mid table safety but not for a team who were pushing for promotion.

Think if he'd had got a goal for us early on he might have done ok, as it was he didn't and his confidence was shot. If he get's one there early I reckon he might do ok. If not Blackpool beach beckons. 3 shit loan spells is probably too much for anyone.

Nat Brown's decisive penalty appeared to be saved by Glenn Morris, but as the keeper celebrated the ball spun into the net to hand the Silkmen victory.

Would like to see a video of Swindon reserves' spectacular FA Cup replay exit last night! (Barry Corr scored two then missed a penalty in the shootout.)
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/fa_cup/9191284.stm (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/fa_cup/9191284.stm)

I was wondering the other day how their fans have responded to some of our ex-players. I imagine Easton will be liked and Zaaboub will be frustrating but I do wonder whether they think Corr is any good (because I know someone on here was adamant he was the second coming) and whether they like Sturrock's style of play and family favouritism.

He's easily of a standard where he should be playing in League two.

I was right behind the fans who supposedly told him they were going to burn his house down and it simply didn't happen. It was a classic case of make the aggressor the victim - pure PR. He got pissy when people sang "where's our captain gone" and gave out loads and then received a load back.
I do hold a grudge against him and Heywood for 'Nam but I genuinely believe he was generally a useless cunt for us. The most positionally inept player I've seen in a red shirt, althuogh either Rose or O'Brien could give him a run for his money.

Someone still holds a grudge from Cheltenham don't they.

Gurney was a lot better for Town (aside from being a cunt) than many other players we have had.

For example, I give you...................... David Peach

Lost 7-0 nil on debut for Saints at Ipswich.....while his debut for Town resulted in a 6-2 reverse at Miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilwall :eek:

Who remembers Leigh Mills? He didnt actually ever play for Swindon but was a player here...He started his career as a youth team player at Swindon Town but was signed by Tottenham Hotspur as a 16-year-old in 2004 before he had made a single league appearance for the Robins.[1]

Mills joined Brentford in a season-long loan deal on 17 June 2008.[2] However on 8 August he was recalled by Tottenham and joined Gillingham on loan, subsequently extended from one month to five. [3][4][5] Mills made his Gillingham and professional debut in a 1-0 home defeat against Luton Town on 16 August. [6], the loan ended on 1st January, 2009. Then in February Mills was released from his contract.[7]

In mid 2007 Leigh married and decided to retire from professional football much later in 2009.

In July 2010, Mills signed for his hometown club Winchester City on a free transfer.[

I honestly believe Marshall would have played more for us if - when playing for the reserves he wasnt so greedy.

Every game I watched, he'd tear the full back apart - turn him inside out about 37 times, get towards the byline - Town players filling the box.

Cut inside and shot.

No matter which side, he'd do that - very rarely would be actually cross it and as you can imagine the number of times he put in the top corner compare to the times to put it wide or over or straight at the defender or straight at the keeper isnt favorable.

He probably would have set up about 20 more goals if he wasnt greedy and I expect that would have got noticed by management - instead they noticed he was greedy and had a crap shot on him.

Maybe he thought that was the way to impress trying to score, it wasnt.

I'm amazed how well he did at Killie, and I have to say it says more about the quality of the SPL (League 1 apart from Rangers and Celtic).

I think the lower league game has moved on a bit in the last 10 years and players are expected to be a lot more skillful.

On the flip side, they are also a lot less determined and far far more mentally fragile than 10 years ago.

Velicka was good at Hearts, good enough for Rangers to sign him. Picked up a few injuries but I wouldn't be unhappy if we were to sign him from what I saw from him at Tynecastle.

News of the Chippenham Goal Machine

Quote
BBC Sport's David Dulin reports: "As if the blow of losing manager Dean Holdsworth to Aldershot wasn't big enough for Newport County fans, things have just got worse as top scorer Craig Reid has left for League Two side Stevenage. The deal is a "club record" for Stevenage - but undisclosed - includes strike duo Charlie Griffin and Yemi Obubade going in the opposite direction."

Chris Hamblin was a YTS-goalie in the mid-90s who is now a successfull coach in US, after living in USA since leaving Swindon in the 90s. He actually also was selected in the Hall of Fame at his college were he played as a goalie for Boston Bulldogs.

Bath City striker Kaid Mohamed may have played his last game for the club after he refused to sit on the bench during the 2-1 win over Grimsby on Saturday.

The 26-year-old, who is the club's joint leading scorer this season, recently rejected a new contract.

"When I named the side he was not in it. He was upset and said he wanted no part in the game," manager Adie Britton told the Non-League Paper.

"He's made it clear he wants to go back to full-time football."

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/d/dundee/9433951.stm

Dundee have rejected allegations they are exploiting a loophole in the rules to play trialists from the junior ranks while banned from signing new players.

Jake Hyde scored the equaliser against Dunfermline on Tuesday having just signed for Lochee United.

Dundee chief executive Harry MacLean told BBC Scotland: "It is quite simple.

"You can play two trialists in any game and they can play a maximum of three and, if it comes from the juniors, it comes from the juniors."

Dunfermline manager Jim McIntyre was unwilling to criticise his side's Division One opponents, while Scottish Football League sources stress that Dundee have done nothing wrong according to the rules.

But some at the Fife club are thought to be unhappy after 20-year-old striker Hyde's goal denied them a victory that would have taken the Pars above leaders Raith Rovers on goal difference at the top of the table.

Hyde, who started his career with Swindon Town and had a spell with Barnet before being released by Conference National club Hayes & Yeading United, has been in the city for five weeks but only just received international clearance to sign for Lochee.
   
We are struggling to put a team out and the manager has to do what he can

Dundee chief executive Harry MacLean

Dundee, who are not allowed to sign new players while they remain in administration, have also fielded defender Craig Robertson as a trialist from the East Superleague outfit during their 22-game unbeaten run.

"I don't think it is sudden," said MacLean about Hyde's appearance after joining Lochee while pointing out that trialists must be registered in Scotland as cross-border moves are not permitted.

"I don't know particularly Jake's background.

"Obviously, he is a signed Lochee United player, but if their manager Paul Ritchie wants to use him in the future, I am sure he will.

"The situation is that he is a junior player and his registration is held in Scotland and what we need then is a letter from his junior club to say he can play for us.

"We are not going to gain any massive advantage out of that because Jake, as far as I am aware, didn't have a club for a period of months and the lad's trying to get a career on track and how he does that is his business.

"But we are struggling to put a team out and the manager has to do what he can."

A 25-point penalty means Dundee are eight points clear of the relegation play-off spot instead of leading Division One by five and the use of trialists will not be permitted for any club beyond the end of March.

And MacLean suggested that Dundee's use of trialists - retired former Scotland winger Neil McCann and ex-Dunfermline striker Graham Bayne have also guested - was to the benefit of the other Division One clubs.

"One of the major things we were punished for was bringing the integrity of the league into question and I would suggest that, if we played what we would call a first 11 in some games and weren't able to do that in others, that would affect things like promotion slots, relegation and different positions in the league," he said.

"We've played Falkirk and Dunfermline in the last couple games and we've managed to put out a good team and get a performance.

"In a couple of weeks time, we will not be able to play trialists and will play Raith Rovers and so if you kick in with injuries and suspensions, we may well be playing a team that looks considerably weaker on paper.

"How would Dunfermline feel about that? They are probably not very excited.

"The thing now for us is that we are trying to avoid relegation, but we've also got a duty to the others teams to put out as best a team we can possibly do.

"If that means playing trialists, it means playing trialists, we make no apology for that."

Chris Hamblin was a YTS-goalie in the mid-90s who is now a successfull coach in US, after living in USA since leaving Swindon in the 90s. He actually also was selected in the Hall of Fame at his college were he played as a goalie for Boston Bulldogs.

I did my coaching badge with Wiggy Hamblin, good lad.

Kilmarnock manager Mixu Paatelainen is on the shortlist for the vacant manager's job at Scunthorpe United.

Paatelainen is one of four candidates the Championship club are considering to succeed the sacked Ian Baraclough.

Killie chairman Michael Johnston has given Scunthorpe permission to speak to Paatelainen and his representatives.

Others in contention are former Swindon manager Danny Wilson, ex-Charlton boss Phil Parkinson and the current Bury boss Alan Knill.

The Killie chairman is currently abroad on holiday but he is determined to pull out all the stops to keep Paatelainen at the Scottish Premier League club.

What the hell has happened to Matt Heywood?

Released by Barrow and now playing for Buxton - at the age of 31.  He was made captain at Grimsby a couple of seasons back but he seems to have dropped to the depths since being released for shocking form.

He was never the greatest player but he was a solid league one defender that could turn in a few decent performances.  At 31 he should still be doing the business and he doesn’t appear to have to many injury problems, shitty aside.

He was the highest earner at Barrow but was sacked without playing. Two reasons were rumoured: a) training ground fight and b) declaring himself injured when in fact he was attending a college course to help with the impending demise of his totalling career

There's no place for him at Leeds this season, he should've got stuck in at Swindon. Hart's been blamed for this but I am still more disappointed by Grella's bail-out than the decision to stick him on the bench for a game.

I was at London Road on Saturday and took a keen interest in Rory Fallon. For the first 15 minutes he looked like a poor Vincent Pericard, not jumping for headers etc. For the remaining 75 minutes he was excellent (I assume Peter Reid gave him a rocket), intelligent use of the ball (the fact Plymouth's midfield looked decent may have helped) and good in the air. He never had any clear cut chances but playing up front on his own with Bolassie just off him seemed to work.

Joe Mason came on for 5 minutes and wasn't on long enough for me to form an opinion.

From the BBC site :

West Brom goal: Now, there have been some cracking goals already today but I would watch Match of the Day tonight for this strike alone. Simon Cox, who had come off the bench for the Baggies, has nothing on when he collects the ball on the left-hand corner of the Spurs area... so he decides to go for goal, curling an a pearler of a shot past the diving Heurelho Gomes and just inside the far post. Superb.


Wonder if it's as good as his goal against Walsall...

From the BBC site :

West Brom goal: Now, there have been some cracking goals already today but I would watch Match of the Day tonight for this strike alone. Simon Cox, who had come off the bench for the Baggies, has nothing on when he collects the ball on the left-hand corner of the Spurs area... so he decides to go for goal, curling an a pearler of a shot past the diving Heurelho Gomes and just inside the far post. Superb.


Wonder if it's as good as his goal against Walsall...

More importantly, why was he allowed to play naked?

Played under Buckle at Torquay, I had the pleasure of watching him play 4 or 5 times for our stiffs, got pace and a little control but no final ball at all, a bit like Macklin.

Day off for Independence day in the U.S so sat watching England playing Germany in U17 WC Quarter Finals. Alex Henshall is playing- not up to much but it's hard to play when you can't get the ball off the other team often and then when you do you smash it up to the CF.

Two nil down after twenty minutes and the difference in technical ability is quite obvious.

From centre half to goal scoring winger. Mental. Wasn't he the one that Dave Burne referred to as playing like he's just eaten raw meat or something?

I recall a couple of the write ups from his reserve exploits and remember that they had to "calm him down" a bit.  Shame he never got a chance as he had that raw potential but has never managed to harness it.

Not as far as I'm aware, we looked at signing him on loan again but he had half the Championship after him. Then tried again in January but he picked Huddersfield instead.

There was never any mention of a bid being made by Swindon.

"Sam Parkin is set for a sensational return to swindon. Parkin who has has a tough time since leaving Swindon has often expressed a desire to return. Unwanted at St Johnstone, Parkin took the initiative and decide to ring Paolo Di Canio personally, expressing his desire to play for Swindon and that he is determined to be a hero once more. Paolo was impressed by this and has decided to offer Parkin a week long trial when the squad return from Italy. These revelations will be revealed by the swindon advertiser later this week.

Couldn't make supermarine tonight as I live in Bristol but I popped to the memorial ground tonight to see how Charlie Austin was looking. Came on as a second half sub didn't do anything to note but may I say rovers looked very good against a full strength burnley and won 2-0. I didn't think they would be up there but I would say they defiantly will be after that tonight.

Judging purely on the list of players they've signed, I'm expecting them to be right up there this season. Obviously you never know if the players will gel and be cohesive, but it tonight suggests they're heading in the right direction.

McNamee released from Norwich..

Quote
It is understood the system of play Lambert is looking to adopt in the top flight this term will not suit McNamee, so the Norwich boss will not stand in the wide-man's way.

A host of Championship clubs are thought to be interested in McNamee, who has scored once in 37 appearances during his time at Norwich.

Living of past reputation.

Did you know David Prutton played for England Under 21s and once cost 2.5m
Did you know Jonathan Douglas played in the Premier League for Blackburn, played for Leeds and was capped by ROI
Did you know Michael Rose was part of the Norwich side that won L1
Did you know Jon-Paul McGovern topped the L1 assists chart in 2010


Managers will see stuff like that on players CVs and think, well ok it didnt work out last season but I might be able to get the best out of them.

The same way our fans liked the idea of George Burley as our a manager - because he won manager of the year in 2001 - done fuck all else since and will live off that in every single job interview for the rest of his life. Chairmen will be taken in by it.

In a way why I am much happier with the players and manager we have, very few have a previous reputation in England or in Management - so they have to make their reputation - which will either see their career flourish or end quicker than Thomas Dossevi's time in England.

Pook released by CTFC.

In a seperate article from 4 months ago...

"Talking about his decision to make Pook available for transfer despite him having a year left on his contract, Yates said: "Michael has not been anywhere near what I expected from him this season.

"He is not being singled out for criticism but he hasn't performed to the standard that I expected from him as a captain.

"If I can get what I want in the summer then Michael will only be on the edge of the team and he's on too much money and too good a player not to be featuring."

But Yates said there could be a chance for Pook to stay if his form improved.

"There is every chance that Michael could still be here next season," he added.

"He knows where I am coming from and, if it serves as a little rocket to get him going next season, then we'll have a better player on our hands than this year."

Can't judge Flint on 5 games. But the signs are encouraging. He has put in 5 very good back-to-back performances. Something Morrison didn't manage with us.

Has to be remembered Morrison is a year and a half younger and has played at a higher level though :)

Having said that they have a fucking tremendous structure around the club.  The hotel owned by the same company brought in over 3 million in revenue in 10/11 not sure what the operating profit was but they have some seemingly impressive figures in their published accounts.

The hotel is a Hilton so I wonder if the profit from that revenue is shared between the club and Hilton if so then it might not be that much of a money maker at the moment, but a good source of income none the less.

The company which owns Franchise have lost quite a bit of money over the last few years which has resulted in them having to cut the footballing wage bill and take short term loans.

That should set alarm bells ringing for him. His loan history is one of decreasing quality. Good players start low and end up with cameos in the first team after eye opening loans in the Championship. Maybe if he bothered to put in some effort now, he might make it while he's still young and able to affect his future.

From the BBC Sport Website:
Quote
This almost seems reasonable after what else has happened tonight. Kettering strikers Moses Ashikodi and Jean-Paul Marna were sent-off for fighting each other tonight as Hayes & Yeading won an eight-goal thriller in the Blue Square Bet Premier. Ashikodi insisted in taking on a penalty but it was saved. Marna scored from the resulting corner, and back in the centre-circle they started punching each other. Brilliant

A couple of Leeds fans quotes, " he is the worst player in the league " another says, " I feel sorry for whoever takes him " it's strange though as both agree that there should be a clause to not let him play against Leeds as he would probably get a couple of goals.

Malta sacks Buttigieg as national coach

INTRO:Malta fires national coach John Buttigieg following weak Euro 2012 campaign

                 
VALLETTA, Malta (AP)  The Malta Football Association has fired national coach John Buttigieg after his team picked up only one point in its Euro 2012 qualifying campaign.
                 
Malta's FA said Wednesday that Buttigieg's assistant Carmel Busuttil was also sacked.
                 
Both were part way through five-year contracts that started in July 2009.
                 
Under Buttigieg, Malta won just two of the 21 games it played  both friendly matches. The country's only point in Euro 2012 qualifying came from a home draw against Georgia in Group F.

Was bored so checking up on some players form while out on loan from us.

Will Evans 3 games and 1 sub at Hereford, Elliot Benyon 3 games and 7 sub with 1 goal for Wycombe, Billy Bodin 8 games 1 sub and 2 goals for Torquay and Leon Clark 9 games and 7 goals.

Evans and Benyon loans seem to be a bit pointless as they arent getting many games, I guess if their wages are being covered it helps.

Bodin seems to be doing ok if not that great at Torquay but I cant see him being around next season with us.

Clarke has done really well, much as I despise him, hes on a 3 month loan at Chesterfield according to the Spireites website so that will finish on the 9th December. The question is will we be able to sell him for money in the transfer window as I doubt very much that he will ever play for us again, even though he seems to be exactly what we are missing up front this season, or will we loan him out again and then try and sell him at the end of the season?

Was just wondering really, shame he was such an arrogant ignorant twat after the Saints game.

If he carries on scoring at that rate then surely someone will take a gamble on signing him permanently in January? 7 in 9 games is a cracking return, I also doubt that Chesterfield will be ble to afford him or his wages though.

Adi was one of the first, if not the first, Town sub who was himself subbed. Came on, I think for his debut, in midfield and was out of his depth there. So got subbed. That must have been shattering for a young player, but fair play to him he went on to have a very decent career.

I see the Mighty Quinn has led FA Cup virgins Nantwich Town into the 1st round, away to Franchise.

I really felt for Viveash when that happened, he did look totally out of his depth though. Might be memory playing tricks on me but I think the same happened to Ty Gooden, correct me if I'm wrong statto's as It's highly probable i had been in the pub for several hours before.

Interesting to see that he's doing so well for them on the left wing. I think it's unfair to judge young Billy on the three starts he had up front at the start of this season because he's clearly got more about him out wide - Martin Ling must think so anyway!

Laughably allowed himself to be dispossessed and then brushed aside as he tried to recover for goal no. 7

Prem clubs indiscriminately hoover the bottom of the sea like a Spanish trawler and then spit out nearly all the catch (apologies to Cantona for that one).  How often do the young players come out better players for having had their heads very understandably turned so young?

Ask Alex Ferguson about Ralph Milne.......

All players are a risk. You can't always blame the manager. Personally I thought Kingy did a good job considering what he had to put up with - quite possibly the worst period in the club's history in terms of financial problems and boardroom intrigue.

The Andy King 'era' was very up and down, I think we're all agreed about that.

But...

2000-2005 was a very difficult period for the club off the pitch. So the fact that we finished 20th (00/01), 13th (01/02), 10th (02/03), 5th (03/04) and 12th (04/05) was a minor miracle. This is my view on the subject anyway.

Think my views are clouded by the fact that I started going on my own (aged 12) in 2000... and you tend to be less cynical when you're young! I just bloody loved going to football with my friends - even if it was Cambridge at home on a tuesday night in front of 3,800! Funny to think that we got more for the AFC wimbledon JPT game the other week.

Maybe my memory is going but the BBC and Sturrocks account of his time here seems a bit warped. Seems to suggest we were fucked and saved by the miraculous turn around instigated by him;

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/15896377.stm
As I remember it he came in when we were flying high at the top of League 2. He fucked us up by leaving though......

Good lower league manager though. Can't deny him that.

King was ok yes it didn't go right and he punched above his weight but he always done his best for us and was not one of these that was looking towards their next job, he has recommended players to the club since he has left also and I believe we have signed 1 or 2 of them.

I've also spoken to him since he left the club and he has only ever had good things to say about stfc...

I for one would welcome him back in the opposing dugout and would not boo him.

King is easily the best manager we've had this millennium. I suppose Wilson made one stage further in the play-off stakes, but under much better circumstances.

Taking into account boards and finances, with bonus points for cigars. King is our 4th best manager of all time.

Who the fuck would have wanted him? Did he have any other offers? We only took him back on after Todd because we couldn't afford the tribunal case - which to be fair he would have won hands down. He was a cunt who may be loyal to some but was an egotistical shitstain to others. I believe Tom Jones' son speaks highly of him. I think anyone who went to the Trust gathering at the GW Bar would see how far up his own ringpiece he was.

Andy King built a decent team for peanuts, which played fairly attractive, effective football. He was also good value in an interview. When things weren't going well, however, he openly turned on some players and fans in public (even if they deserved it!), which was a bit off.

Kingy gave us our best season in recent years imo. The Parkin-Mooney play off year was one of the best imo and hasn't been bettered since. We ad some cracking players then and the team was a joy to watch at times.
He was also still some player in training and put alot of the players to shame. A rude,arrogant twat and not friendly with supporters so i understand the dislike of the bloke,but boy could he spot a player.

Didn't King come back after Evans left because we couldn't agree a settlement with him so just took him back as our manager as he was still on the payroll? Wouldn't put it past our board at the time. Also wasn't King linked with the Pompey job after Harry Redknapp left the first time?

I enjoyed the Kingy era to be honest. The free tickets that were dished out at some away games were a really nice touch in darker times. Like a fair few, I probably fealt closer to the club then than I have since. The fans also had a bit more unity for me, none of this niggling at each other on the terraces, good times fan wise.

Jerel had all the right attributes in terms of strength and pace and had enough technical ability (except being able to pass) but far too often his performances relied on being partnered with someone more experienced who could essentially hold his hand.

I thought he was excellent in our last League 2 campaign.

My abiding memories of Sol Davis in a Swindon shirt would be when he went through Rodney Jack like a train during the 99/00 season against Crewe. It was a fantastically horrendous tackle right below the Nationwide stand which ended up in Sol being sent off.

Secondly was a match against Bristol City at the CG when he karate kicked Scott Murray in the head then went down rolling on the ground acting injured to spare getting sent off. I believe he only got a yellow card.

Does it say something when my memories of Sol Davis appear to be violent tackles?

I do hope we have a large sell on clause in that transfer. If Austin does continue to score goals at this rate he will be worth more than Maynard at shitty who is currently valued at over £6 million, I think Austin is a better goal getter than him.

If we have a 25% profit sell on clause (pretty standard kind of clause) and he is sold for £6 mill then that will equate to about £1 million in our pocket.....nice!

Big rumour going around the club that he hasn't played the last two games for Barnet because he has been sacked by the club for failing a drugs test. There is a statement due to come from the club tomorrow or tuesday on the matter.

Will be a shame for his fledging career, was on course to sign for a championship club this month. This will mean he won't play again for the rest of this season and his contract expires at the end of the season so it makes sense to sack him now without compensation. Gutting when we could of got a sizeable fee for him.

Not an ex player, but saw Phil Smith this morning taking his son to pre-school which is next to my son's primary school.  As we walked past, my son recognised him and loudly said 'There's Phil Smith'  and  I said 'Yes it is'.  He obviously heard and gave us a smile, whilst my son started a discussion about why he no longer plays anymore and that Wes Foderingham is better! I hope we were far enough away at that point for him not to hear that part of the conversation!

Suffice it to say, he never made it at Villa  :)
