And Massiah McDonald! Not an old player of ours I know, but that guy must have played for 170 different clubs by now.
Jordan Wheatley? I vaguely remember the name but that’s about it!

One of Toothy’s many signings - played against Ashton on the opening day of 2017-18, had a stinker at Matlock on the Tuesday night in the second game and was hooked at the break. Never played again and returned to Ilkeston, where he had been the previous season

Blimey that didn't last long did it?
Come home Sweenz.

Yes, AM needs to get onto this straight away!

Would be nice mate, quality player at our level, but I would suspect he's had a National League side sniffing around.

Doesn’t appear that everyone’s favourite striker is still there either according to his Twitter


Matt Clarke swinging the axe early doors on players he doesn’t rate?
Literally one of the old guard from Halesowen joins him at Redditch, plus Lewis Wright


Bugger... a top signing for Nuneaton. A real difference-maker and another one that’s escaped us

Jamie Ashmore from Halesowen to Barwell


I make that eight ex-Pitmen on show at Walsall Wood v Gresley the other day

I think its nine

Wren
Rowley
McNaught
Luckie
Nelson
Fitzpatrick
McDermott
Sullivan
Briscoe

But I will stand to be corrected

I think it depends on the definition again. Is a player who plays a few pre-season games only an old player? If so, it’s nine as Luckie left before the season started. And I think Nelson may have too? So it’s 7, 8 or 9

Paul Sullivan's birthday today. Recently became engaged to a 21-year-old.

I'm sure you'd all like to congratulate him....

James Mutton leaves Sutton Coldfield:

Spotted by Perton, he's gone to Clitheroe (from "Sutton Coalfield", thus proving he's an ex-Pitman...)

Good lad! We’d all do it if we could

Having a fairly free Sunday I thought it was about time I updated the 'HTFC to Football League' document that Dave Shaw started over a decade ago and I agreed to help continue towards as his health sadly declined.

Following Lloyd Kerry and Remeao Hutton making their Football League debuts earlier this month we have now had 126 players appear for us (it only has to be one appearance) and then move into the Football League (doesn't have to be directly from us).

Thanks to those who contribute to this thread - it has helped a lot. Now to write 20 new pen pics to go with the player list!
