Keogh and aging defenders 13:40 - Aug 9 with 2343 viewsbaxterbasics

Trying to think of any other defenders who've been brought in at the twilight of their career and done a decent job for us.

There was Unsworth, though he was a sprightly 32.

We signed Stephen Ward a few seasons ago. He wasn’t particularly good but somehow played 30 games for us apparently at 34/35

Mowbray is probably the best signing we have made in the past 25 years. I'm surprised this post hasn't been deleted out of embarrassment.

John Scales. Don't think he ever started a leagur game at Portman Road.


He was a perm signing wasn’t he?

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

He was 31.

In terms of fitness/health Keogh is probably about the equivalent of a 31 year old Mowbray in 1999. You and I both know back then that players still went out on the piss every weekend (and some midweek that).

George Santos. If your measure of doing a good job is how consistently a ball is headed directly up in the air.

I seem to remember in amongst Paul Jewell's rotating cast of ageing hired guns lucky-dipped from the footballing bin, Danny Collins had a reasonably good spell for us.

Obviously I was aware of Mowbray, though he was marginally before my time as a fan so I was thinking more recently, and as has been pointed out was only 31.

Mowbray was 36 when he retired after the play-off final. I think I read Keogh is 36 this week.


Chambers is 36 - just like Keogh!!

Stephen Taylor and St Ledger were lesser successful entries too weren't they?


St Ledger wasn't old iirc and I don't reckon he started a game. A real ageing flop was Ivar Ingimarsson!
