the early years....

[Beachboys]

His son is playing for us

 

Good lad !

[urchinboys]

Grant isn't it?

[Hasbeen]

That could be right, but Arthur must have had a second stint as he was def manager in my time as was Paul delea and I didn't start playing until 1980

I bet Tree was really gutted when he opened this thread to find it was not a story about his favourite unsigned musical act!

[Hasbeen]

He's not insulted me Westy, he must have more respect for his elders <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/alk.gif" alt="" />

[Urchins]

[Bionic II]

Wallace Builders!!!

 

Nice one Coachie

[Eastside Urchin]

jeff thomas is my mate but unfortunalty he watches the daggers now,used to play for us late 90's but didn't really get a look in then he went to uni

[Bionic II]

Blimey, where do I start!

 

First of all, nice one Coachie and thanks, why are you not part of us?

 

Grant Lee probably pound for pound our greatest keeper, apart from Bayzo, but that was a different level.

 

Moulds Our Assistant Manager and a legend in HX fame

 

Frossie "the snowman" part of the Craig E team and done his knees in so many times I lost count, scored two crackers at Clapton in a 3 2 victory at Xmas and nearly a hatrick from Left Back

 

Keeps One of our best defenders, to move on to Braintree and Grays, sheer quality.

 

Barnesy the expert of the "shuffle" a great fella who went with Dee one of the Hammerettes, never forget that wave up to Yours Truly in the Stand.

 

Rob Walker Good Inside Forward, Dad was his greatest critic, mum a good golfer

 

Scott Williams Captained the 'side against us last season, good inside forward

 

Inu Speedy Inside Forward

 

Danny G Tall Centre Forward, done his ankle in at Croydon Athletic and never played again, still follows our progress.

 

Dyso! Stands out the incident at GWR in May 2003 when he shafted their Manager big time, terrific fella.

 

Scotty Barnett Good Fullback who played in midfield, nice family

 

Staggy what can I say apart from his pici is in the clubhouse holding aloft the Trophy, now Manager at KH, topman

 

Jeff Thomas up and coming youngster at the time but did score a great equaliser against London Colney, FA Cup late nineties.

 

 

The Boro?

 

Marso of course, two spells at BA and some great memories

 

Rob Risley soon after to sign for the Urchins and then followed by his Bro' Mark, a legend

 

John Ray "Just walking in the rain" played against us many times, ,a good Centre Half

 

Memories !!
