He got promoted with them but suffered a really bad injury in the close season. Unsure if he ever played for them. Had a good spell at Sheffield Utd though I think. *edit* Good spells at Bradford, not SU. [Post edited 11 Dec 2024 14:38]

Players you’d forgotten played for us on 11:22 - Dec 11 by WolfieAtTheBack | What was the name of the player I think under MM who didn't know how to take a corner? He claimed to be a winger / footballer at the time, possibly from the French lower leagues. |
When he kicked out the corner flag and fell over, the ball rolling feebly away for a goal kick. Utterly brilliant. |  |

That's the one, it was tragic, funny though. Don't think he played again after that did he and he went to Andorra ha Sort of thing I can see Al Hamadi doing... (Sorry Ali). |  | |  |

Luke Thomas. We'll face him when we play Bristol Rovers in the FA Cup. |  | |  |

They've also got the centre back who left us for Plymouth. Name escapes me but he was decent. |  | |  |

Looks like you're right, he was with them in their year in the PL but doesn't look to have played. Seems he's assistant manager of Hull U18's now, if Wiki is to be believed. |  | |  |

James Wilson. Grant Ward there as well - all the old favourites. |  |

Players you’d forgotten played for us on 05:07 - Dec 11 by IPS_wich | In the Royle and Magilton eras (2003-2009) our team was comprised of a combination of: (i) players left from the Burley/Premier League era who didn't really have a saleable value - e.g. Naylor, Wilnis, Magilton and McGreal (ii) experienced Championship players who we signed on frees or relatively low fees - e.g. De Vos, Currie, Kuqi, Horlock, Forster, Lee (iii) players that came through the youth ranks. In this last group there were many new hopes, but in reality only Bent and to some extent Ambrose were sold and went on to have long term Prem/Champ careers. A lot of these homegrown players probably got more games than they would have done if not coming up through the ranks, and it's amazing to look back at just how many appearances some of them had: - Matt Richards, 148 appearances - Ian Westlake, 113 appearances - Owen Garvan, 163 appearances - Dean Bowditch, 78 appearances - Danny Haynes, 115 appearances - Lewis Price, 68 appearances - Billy Clarke, 49 appearances (I would have guessed 10) Of these, Westlake was probably the best prospect, but he went to Leeds and it all fizzled out from there. He was a tidy, industrious player with a huge tank and a decent left foot. But he was fairly one paced and wasn't a tricky player. Not one of our greatest ever homegrown players, but probably the pick of the mid-2000s crop (if we assume Bent and Ambrose were more early-2000s. |
Garvan had a good spell for Palace |  | |  |

Players you’d forgotten played for us on 16:51 - Dec 11 with 995 views | Zx1988 | I'm trying to remember a chap. Don't think he ended up signing for us, but was with us as a trialist one summer in the mid 2010s. I seem to recall him being mentioned around the Utrecht friendly, but can't see any mention of him in the write-ups. Can anyone shed any light? Edit: I think I might be thinking of Roland Lamah?

I'll never forget him; every time he had the ball in his hands, he kicked it straight to the opposition's keeper. |  | |  |

I think he played left back. Luke Matthewson or something? |  | |  |

Georgiou now at 27 plays non league, so he had a rapid drop down the leagues. [Post edited 11 Dec 2024 18:30]

That's the one, he playeda couple of games under Cook or was it Paul L. |  | |  |

I think only played about 45 minutes. Appreciate that could be several players. Got it, Simon Dawkins. |  |
