astottie Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 (edited) Assuming Purdie leaves without a first team appearance....any others? possibly Brendan O'Callaghan in the days before time. Joe paid £55kish to Stoke I reckon and i don't remember seeing him before his career was over. A mate of mine who worked at the club at the time reckoned Joe and Willie decided that they needed a 6 foot plus centre half who could also play up front and spent one afternoon looking through Rothmans to see who fitted the bill before thy came up with him.

Latics_Fanatic Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Did Ian Moore offically sign? & Stephen Shumacher, did he sign? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaskedOwl Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Did Ian Moore offically sign? & Stephen Shumacher, did he sign? wasn't schumacher only on loan? and i thought he did get the odd sub appearance? he went on to say it was his worst experience as a footballer.

oafcprozac Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 (edited) but that was before he signed for Bury..... Schumacher was only on trial, and played only for the ressies - we didn't take up the option and he ended up at Bradford...

oafcprozac Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Ian Thompstone A few that barely played Tony Ellis - 5 league starts Wayne Heseltine - Derek Brazil Mike Fillery - 2 appearances, 14 mins of his debut and his comeback at Notts County John Gannon - 6 appearances John Morrow - 1 start at Crystal Palace John Keeley - 4 starts (in 3 comps) Matthew Rush - 18 starts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Sinnott Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Discounting his awesome loan spell, Beavers never played in his permanent spell I'm sure I saw Beavers play up front with Agogo in an August game at Brentford! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanakapan Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Assuming Purdie leaves without a first team appearance....any others? Tony Hateley played 5 mins first team football as a sub at Brighton....scored too. at the end of the day that goal won us the league. Strange but true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafcprozac Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 (edited) I'm sure I saw Beavers play up front with Agogo in an August game at Brentford! You're right they did - we lost 2-0. Beavers came on as sub at Stockport in the league cup, sadly his Latics career was over by August bank holiday! (Same with Agogo - another one who was turd but scored loads elsewhere!)

singe Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 (edited) My memery has never bee prozac-esque, so no chance of remembering who has not played for us, but a few of the ones that played a handful of games but more was expected, that stick in the mind. Bruce Grobelaar was one Asa Hartford Orpheo Kaiserweed, of course John Morrow Tore Pedersen, though he got into double figures. Neil tolson seemed to be around more than he was Martin Buchan made a few, but I was very disappointed at the time he played less than 30 games. Tony hately too Of the loanees Derek Brazil hardly played Marlon Beresford We have a bit of history of trying to get the odd star our way, but normally well past their sell by date!

oafcprozac Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I dont think the young forward Dowie got from non league played think his name was Wes Wilkinson. wasn't Dowie, Shez brought him in on trial before Talbot took over - who signed him. Played a few games including destroying Bristol City at Ashton Gate providing two assists, before being nobbled. Never hit those heights again as he was a bit of a good time guy who didn't take a possible career in football too seriously (the knob!) last seen back at woodley Sports, could have been a cracker but preferred being on the piss and faking injury!
