For Latics fans 30 and over


Recommended Posts

listening to the Sheffield derby on Five Live Sports extra and our Nemesis is the guest summariser Keith 'The Bastard' Edwards, the man who broke Latics hearts in May '87 and scored against us year on year. Even when he was owd and knackered and shipped out on loan to Plymouth and we were top of the league and steam-rollering teams he scored Argyle's leveller in a 5-3 defeat for the Pilgrims. Hate the guy with a passion and I believe he also scored a hat-trick for Sheff U in a 5-1 win for the Blades at BP in 85-86, a game that saw Roger Palmer sent-off, all this after The Dodger had put us in front!

I used to hate Steve Kindon in the 70's and early 80's he had spells particularly at Burnley and Huddersfield and he never used to fail to score against us and often more than 1 as well.

 

I used to dread him lining up against us and hated him with avengence.

 

a few more I remember bagging with ominous regularity against us:-

 

Jimmy Quinn

Duncan Shearer

Simon Garner

Mick Quinn

Brian McClair

Mark Robins

Hector Sam

Tony Cottee

David Kelly

Mike Sheron

Fat Barsteward Windass

Bernie Slaven

Bobby Davison

 

and Darren Beckford, Sean McCarthy and Stitch regularly enjoyed good days against our defence...

Yup. A complete c--- through and through.

 

He nearly died on the plastic pitch though- and I'll not mention who helped save him.

 

I'm fairly certain Kingsley Black had a decent scoring record against us as well as Trevor Morley.

He had a Cracking 'Tache though!! :wink:

 

 

Mark Stein when he was at Oxford always seemed to score against us IIRC

 

Echo the Duncan Shearer point - the big daft ginger always scored against us!!!
