Lewington is a fucking arsehole and as unlikeable as the club he plays for.

Glad they didn't qualify for Wembley although it would have been nice to see their 10k fanbase lose int he final. Still, twine can now leave for a better, bigger club in a higher like Rotherham Cheesy.

Whatever you or anyone else thinks of Franchise or Dean Lewington personally.

886 career games and still going is some achievement…

Absolutely it is, could be loyalty or it could be that he wasnt good enough to make the step up at another club.

He will probably go on to be their manager at some point.

Hopefully with a similar effect as Trollope had as manager here.

Talking of the name Trollope where's his son these days as he used to follow Chris Hughton around.

As Hughton was last noted having some involvement with the Ghana national team perhaps there?

Hoof it is right. Very low quality game. Presume neither team play like this on a regular basis.

No shit, I haven’t claimed otherwise…

…but he’s still made 739 league appearances for Franchise which is still within a season of the John Trollope record for league appearances for one club.
I didn’t count his Wimbledon appearance in those 739. That’s an addition 29 league appearances on top of the 739 league appearances for Franchise.

I think we're at slight crossed purposes here.  I thought Trollope's record is for only ever playing for one club, so the most appearances for his one and only club, rather than just most appearances for one club, if that makes sense.  That was the only reason I mentioned the different club thing.

It might be the mists of time and all that but I quite enjoyed our long-ball game under Macari but I don't remember it being anything like this game tonight. Perhaps I'm getting sophisticated in my old age.

Think it’s both.
Obviously Lewington can only break the latter.
