Maybe im being selfish but name change aside thats who we are. Charlie Mac, Liam Hatch, Mark bentley - real history and good times.

Im depressed with all this!!


Yes, but the moving of great players from the past out of the collective consciousness is part and parcel of football.

My son has been going for three years and is a fully fledged supporter, but he won't have heard of many of these players

The future supporters that have just been born will only hear of Charlie Mac through reports and reminiscences of misty eyed supporters

There will be 80 year olds talking about their favourite players from their days, most/all of whom will have been forgotten by the majority

This would happen regardless of this development

Agreed - my early years at the club saw players like Brian Woolf, Steve Brown, Ken Burrett, Alan Croudace, Les Hall, Brian Hughes, John Thurgood, Andy Woon, Colin Norman - how many of today's supporters have heard of all of them, if any!
