Don't think Johnston was a kid, more mid-twenties, and a schoolteacher if my memory serves me well. It was sad to see him vainly trying to resurrect his career. A time when footballers just wanted to play not be seen as demigods to be revered for "kicking a bag of wind !" Billy Johnson had the makings of a great player.

BP1960 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 (edited) Former Latics youth Chris Baguley playing for Prestwich Heys v Radcliffe Borough in the FA cup live BBC red button match today. Also ex Latics youth cenre back Tommy Lent for Radcliffe, who I thought looked decent when here However, it's young Prestwich winger Rio Wilson Heys who's caught my eye, faded badly 2nd half though so will reserve my judgement.

leeslover Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Interesting interview with Warney on Football Focus. Wanted to make his players better people and would turn down better players in preference for ones with better character. He'd have had to do a cull from a few Latics squads over the years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kusunga_Is_God Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Think Deyres is pointing out that no one is in a rush to praise Gerrard keeping a clean sheet but ready to berate him when his side does concede. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My god I didn’t realise that Carlisle played with only one defender last weekend. Must be some record to keep a clean sheet with no keeper and only one centre back playing.
