Why can I genuinely not remember who these guys are Shudder at the thought of those 2. Jones in particular, looked like a League 2 player and played like one.

The 1-4 was my birthday and my biggest ever bet in football sadly against Wednesday. I knew we'd get trounced and bet on them to score 4+ goals. Went out and avoided the game. Really were bad days. I'm sure we also got schooled by them a year or two later when they had your namesake playing upfront, Aaron Maclean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Newsome Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 9 years has flown, we got tonked 5-1 at Exeter that same season, was freezing cold and snowy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owls maniac Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 We were all over the moon when we signed the likes of Clinton and Teale. On paper they were big names, but soon became apparent that they were all largely past their best and didn't have the fire in their belly to turn us around. God knows what we were paying them. At least the following season wasn't too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must have been crap but not crap enough to leave a Beswetherick like scar on my mind Was pretty bad. I can remember him having a brilliant game at home against Bristol Rovers when we battered them 6-0 or 6-1 and I thought we had tuned a corner. Remember Paul Heffernan scoring after a lot had him down as some kind of potential saviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember Paul Heffernan scoring after a lot had him down as some kind of potential saviour. Irvine had some weird vendetta against Heffernan and would never start him. This despite him being quite a prolific scorer in that division in the past. Anyone remember the Owlstalk campaign to get him the POTM award despite the fact he had not featured in order to make a point? In the end he wasn't very good.

Think problem was Weaver, Morrison, O'Connor, Teale, Sedgewick. Miller were all 2-3 years past there best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG D Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 I loved Clinton. Used to get so frustrated because he could no longer do the things that made him a decent player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper, but has said the fact most of them had decent enough careers hides the fact that the majority were at the end and in mass decline. Mellor, Weaver and Madine too an extent, Buxton and Reda still did jobs for us though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katie melua Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Nicky Weaver was definitely not a problem He kept that useless manager in a job far longer than he should have been I remember the totally undeserved three points at home to Leyton Orient, plus keeping us in it at 0-0 away at Notts County and home to Rochdale. Thank heavens for Nicky Weaver in those games, before we ended up winning. There was many more i'm sure, apart from that dour 0-0 draw at home to Oldham Athletic where all I can say is, that's up there with the Rushden and Diamonds 0-0. In fact, I think there was only one attempt on goal in that game throughout the 90 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half of the assists were chances he should have buried mind... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
