Re: Former Players!
 

There's a post on an Aberdeen forum about the opposition shooting as soon as they crossed the halfway line when Bertie Bossu was in goal.

I once tried to reach over the fence in the Clayton End to pick up a ball for Paul Chrichton. When I said I couldn't reach it, he responded with 'Story of my life!'

Re: Former Players!
 

when he left stanley i do think he thought he was mighty and above the wham. as for the other keepers mentioned they were before my time and i,d forgive macey as he was only a kid. might not be the worst keeper but evtimov frightened me to death.

Re: Former Players!
 

I remember that I actually quite liked Paul Crichton. :p

I also remember that Cambridge game with Bossu in goal. Fola Onibuje ran us ragged in that first half and I thought, "if only we had a player like that". A few years later he turned up at Accrington and didn't set the world alight. Typical really. :rolleyes:

Re: Former Players!
 

I remember the York fans throwing beach balls at Crichton with shouts of "See if you can catch that" - his reputation had gone before him :D

Re: Former Players!
 

Strong rumour that Paul Cook is to quit Wigan!

Re: Former Players!
 

Bristol City bound led to believe.

Re: Former Players!
 

No surprise there

Re: Former Players!
 

Cook as quit will save on the compo presumably but I think Cook realizes that there is carnage ahead for Wigan.

Re: Former Players!
 

best thing he can do is walk now if he has somewhere to walk too. if he stays his options could end up being forced out anyway or years of getting his compo anyway through the courts.

Re: Former Players!
 

Matty Platt signed for Barrow on a two year deal!

Re: Former Players!
 

must have improved a bit even though he wasn,t the worst loan player stanley have had. good luck to him.

Re: Former Players!
 

I don't remember seeing him play for us - couldn't have made much of an impression but good luck to him

Re: Former Players!
 

I think it was when we had eight players on loan just couldn't force his way in, did see him play but can't form an opinion really on a couple of views.

Re: Former Players!
 

Johnny Edwards signed for Royston FC big drop for him.

Re: Former Players!
 

No. Found his level at last.

Re: Former Players!
 

I presume Matt Macey got a cup winners medal for sitting on the bench yesterday. Never saw that coming when we played Northampton.

Re: Former Players!
 

I've just checked back to January 2015. We lost all four matches that Matt Macey played, conceding 11 goals, including the 5 at home to Northampton.

Re: Former Players!
 

And all 5 I’d argue were his fault. Awful keeper.

Re: Former Players!
 

And weren’t we all experts and perfect when started our first jobs?:rolleyes:

Re: Former Players!
 

And he is a Premiership keeper winning a medal I believe yesterday maybe he just wasn't interested at Stanley it happens especially with kids was same with a Rovers player forget,s his name who came on loan he just didn't care but was probably at 18/19 earning more than Stanley squad.

Re: Former Players!
 

Nearly 26 and played approx. 50 senior games in his career.
Just a shame that most of his time has been sat on a bench.

Re: Former Players!
 

A lot would sit on a bench to pick up a Premiership salary I should imagine some even 3rd or 4th choice probably earning more in a year me and thee see in a lifetime.

Re: Former Players!
 

Just checked Macey,s salery reputed £500,000 a year £10,000 a week not bad for training every week.

Re: Former Players!
 

Yes Exile we were all great when we started I didn't play in goal much and I did not have a goal against me, mind you the refs gave 7 goals and I swear everyone was offside or the ball was knocked in by an arm - refs eh!!!

Re: Former Players!
 

Second goal in the Bananarama Play off scored by Connor Hall

Harrogate (nearly) in the EFL? Well ood ‘a thowt it?

Re: Former Players!
 

Not the Connor Hall we had on loan however. He’d have never scored ;)

All Harrogate 1st half. All Notts County second.

Re: Former Players!
 

Nice to see Scotty Brown...Brown...Brown picking up a medal at Wembley today in Harrogate’s Play Off victory. I am sure he will get well oiled again tonight!:mosher::jimbo::thepint:

Re: Former Players!
 

I don't believe Scott Brown has played for Harrogate this year.

Re: Former Players!
 

i think thats correct dont think hes played for em this year,

Re: Former Players!
 

He has been out on loan but he was there today although not on the team sheet or subs list. He definitely picked up a medal out of the tray with the rest of the team and celebrated the victory.:mosher:Attachment 58126

Re: Former Players!
 

Attachment 58127
Scott Brown. Eight appearances for Harrogate Town earlier in the season 2019/2020 before going out on loan.

Re: Former Players!
 

I wonder what time Scott and the Harrogate players and staff were up until last night?:cheers::drunk::drink::signbeer:

Re: Former Players!
 

Leam Richardson has taken over Paul Cook at Wigan!

Surely waiting for PC to get the nod elsewhere?

Re: Former Players!
 

At least he has the integrity to stay for now, as he did when Cook sodded off to Chesterfield from Stanley

Re: Former Players!
 

the snake will slither anywhere for money,

Re: Former Players!
 

Two more Stanley loanees in a Wembley play-off tonight. Marek Rodák in goal for Fulham, with Marcus Bettinelli on their bench.

And Tariqe Fosu-Henry on the bench for Brentford.

Re: Former Players!
 

Following their usual procedure!:ooh::ooh:

Re: Former Players!
 

trouble is that the majority would do the same. its the claptrap they come out with when they go to a new club. new club scarf round their neck saying what a good glub they have come too with the leagues finest fans, finest owner and the finest tea lady blah blah blah.

Re: Former Players!
 

Clicker joined Luton.

Re: Former Players!
 

Not a happy bunny :(:mad:

Re: Former Players!
 

Great move for him. Championship football which he has craved for and financially a no brainer.
Good luck to him ...... has good friends there Tunnicliffe Pearson and Collins plus others.

Re: Former Players!
 

Wish him well. He's been a great servant to the club and deserves to be playing at Championship level.

Time for Joe Pritchard to step up :)

Re: Former Players!
 

The King is dead, long live The King

Re: Former Players!
 

agree. as least he did not just do a sideways move just for the money. good luck to him.

Re: Former Players!
 

Whilst the financial aspect has a role to play this was way down the list of priorities. This was all about Jordan wanting to stretch himself and see if he could cut it at Championship level.
Several League One clubs expressed interest (and below) that financially ticked the box but he was never going to move sideways or down. A few at Championship level were always going to be the shortlist.

Time will tell but I can't think why any Accy fan could be miffed about his decision.
He's given four good years kept his head down worked hard and never let anyone down.
Equally the club has been good for him.

Re: Former Players!
 

Agree with 28's post about Jordan. Good attitude and performances during his time playing for us.good luck to him. I hope he gets his chance in the championship. Should do well.

Re: Former Players!
 

Chappers spotted at training in the sand dunes today apparently that could answer the goalie position?

Re: Former Players!
 

Could be just keeping fitness up, wouldn't mind him back though.

Re: Former Players!
 

Could be but I think he could do that a bit nearer home.

Re: Former Players!
 

Sean Clare signs for Oxford.

Re: Former Players!
 

Would like to see him back as long as his wages fit in with our structure and level. We (well Coley and Jimmy) sorted him out while he was with us, I remember those early nightmare games he had in goal for us but then improved so much throughout the promotion season.

Re: Former Players!
 

wouldnt mind him back at all to be honest.

Re: Former Players!
 

Wish Jordan all the best,terrific player and model pro.

Re: Former Players!
 

Connor Simpson has gone over to Ireland to play for Cork City!

Re: Former Players!

Re: Former Players!
 

Anthony Barry joining coaching staff at Chelsea one of my favourite midfielder,s at Stanley excellent.

And Omar Beckles, who turned down a new deal at Shrewsbury, is on trial at Wigan.

Re: Former Players!
 

Josh Windass confirmed in at Sheffield Wednesday!

Seems to have got poor reviews from Rangers and Wigan fans about his attitude!

Re: Former Players!
 

if his old man is still hanging around where he plays i,m not surprised.

Re: Former Players!
 

be good if coalville could be one of those obscure teams that get into the 1st round proper and draw us at the wham.

Re: Former Players!
 

that would be great to see Billy once more.

Re: Former Players!
 

Jordan Clarke scored the winner for Luton at Reading tonight in the EFL Cup. A 24th minute header from the centre of the box into the top left hand corner! Jordan played the full match.:hidewall:

Re: Former Players!
 

That's so bittersweet - glad for Jordan that he's off the mark in the Championship, no doubt he'll be over the moon bless him . . . . . . . . . But it's Luton

Re: Former Players!
 

Di and all;

To make it better (or worse) they've got Man U at home in R3; no doubt that will be picked up by Sky TV

Re: Former Players!
 

good twill be nice to see Jordon again, and even nicer to see Luton get stuffed.:D:D:D

Re: Former Players!
 

Won't be watching but will probably be the one & only time I will ever be routing for United

Re: Former Players!
 

wonder if they will print tickets for the game.

Re: Former Players!
 

actually find it difficult to dislike luton myself. at least i know i,m not going back to live in that town after a game. any fan of theirs should be commiserated by us.

Re: Former Players!
 

If you haven't seen the goal pick it up on youtube.
Fantastic header.
Then got a nasty cut from a clash of heads but ok.

Re: Former Players!
 

Sam Finley can now be very bizarrely added to this list! ��

Re: Former Players!
 

You beat me to it Baldy, just started a separate thread on Sam as I think he deserves it, gutted :mad:

Re: Former Players!
 

Strange that Mr Finley has been signed by Fleetwood, sounds fishy (pun intended) to me.

Re: Former Players!
 

Jimmy Dunne makes his starting league debut tonight for Burnley

Re: Former Players!
 

And scores! Pleased for him, was a good player for the club whilst with us

Re: Former Players!
 

I think virtually all Stanley supporters knew when he was on loan to us that he was capable of playing at Premier League level! Well done Jimmy! :alright:
