Shaun Pearson supports York City

Otis Khan was on Ninja Warrior (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xf0VBYSX8kM) and rejected a call up for Pakistan as he had England ambitions.

Max Crocombe's middle name is Teremoana

Andy Smith was born in Bambury

This is what the lack of transfer activity has reduced me to. Any more?

Every time I see Edwin Essel’s name it still isn’t quite an anagram of Edelweiss.

Every pre-season I hope he’s dropped an ‘n’ over the summer. Maybe next season.

Most of the squad were very happy to sign for us, even though they were not born here or a 30 mile radius, previously played in or near large cities, and felt the nightlife in Meggies was good enough for the odd night out.

When Steve Croudson was a kid, he broke his leg in a karate accident. It didn’t stop him playing football though. He refused to rest and recover.  He just laid on the ground whilst I pinged shots at him and he’d swing his pot leg (or any other part of his anatomy) at the ball and still managed to save 90% of them! 🙂

Yes but thats because your shots were atrocious.


And when you fall back into the mud it hurts a lot.
No! None of it was true, none of those things we thought we could see existed at all.
All that was really there was still more misery
