Our resident statmeister has drawn Bello's season stats to my attention:

Interesting!

And there's another ex-Pitman high up in those rankings too, I think, wasn't Stuart Ellis one of the tribe which Simon Line brought with him from MDT??

I know the name Dreniz Bala too, but someone will have to remind me from where...

Slightly less prolific, but then again you don't score too many from right back...

Marco Adaggio? He's tumbled down the levels since the 'glory' days at Strangers :mrgreen:

A propos of nothing, just looking for Stockport County on Twitter, and I find this lady bemoaning the fact that, for £100k, they waived their right to a sell-on clause for Ashley Williams when they sold him onto Swansea (as Laudrup says he might consider selling him, thus the likelihood of him moving onwards and upwards grows...)

:doh:

And who'd have ever thought they'd be heading for the ground where he also used to ply his trade...

Pele signs contract at Havant

And another football manager thinks the top flight of English football is called "the Premiership" (although, to be fair, it might have been when Pele played in it!)

The race is now on between Ross, Chris Clements and Louis Briscoe as to who becomes the next player added to the list of those who have gone from Keys Park into the Football League. Currently on 102.

Sounds like a cue for a quiz to see how many we can name - without cheating!!!!

Off the top of my head:-

Vernon Allatt
Steve Biggins
Keith Russell
Nobby Horton
Ash Williams
Brinner
Adam McGurk
Leon McSweeney
Sean O'Connor (does the SPL count?)
Ross Draper
Tyrone Barnett

..I'll add to this list later!

Yep all those are on there Perton. We plan to have a lot of the players who you would have perhaps seen in the programme over the last two seasons uploaded to the official website at some point over the summer.

And yes Glyn you are correct :-D

Dave Hanson
Jimmy Rodwell (I may be wrong on that one, but he did play for R&D, but maybe only in the Conference)

I know Bohan Dixon did sign for Accrington, but not sure whether he made it onto the pitch for them

We really should have diverted this list to another thread.... but it's too late now (or rather I don't have time to split the thread....)

I reckon Dave Shaw could name all of them.... and meanwhile, my brain hurts.... ah, just got him.... Karl Hawley....

Old man Dickinson turns up at Northwich

Oh, adding to the ex-players done good in the football league, I'd add Boca Freeman to that list (Cheltenham)

Ash (allegedly) wants to move to Arsenal

I think I heard in the week that the Gooners had offered about half what the Swans want for him...
