Man of the Match: Luton Town (A)

I remember Sam Togwell for getting sent off once, and for that alone

EDIT, after Googling:

Sent off on his debut, no less!

The odd thing is, it seems we knew what we were getting as he was sent off against us earlier in the same season, taking out Mr Wycombe:

Nick Arnold was a dreadful right back, wasn’t he?

I don’t remember him at all if I’m honest, but it seems he at least racked up a good few appearances with us:

Sam Togwell manages Beaconsfield now, I think

Ah you’re right (not that I had any idea before looking it up) - he was born in Beaconsfield, and finished his career as a player with Beaconsfield Town before moving into management.

I think the point is, this squad is crap and so is the guy that wanted all these signings and also had his pants pulled down over the price tags.

Nobody is really caring about how many ex Waddock players there were. But I tell you what, I’d have Dave Winfield winning headers over Anders any day of the week.

Dave Winfield over Anders?

Yeah, we’re never going to agree

I had a soft spot for Dave. Scored six for us, knocked more than a few players on their arse and seemed like a nice lad. Still playing semi pro for Hornchurch.

I’m not sure I’d have wanted to see him play it out from the back too often but when he put his foot through a ball it went the distance. I’m willing to bet he horsed more balls into the car park than any player before or since and sometimes that’s just what you need. To be fair most of the time it isn’t but we can all enjoy a thunderous hoof now and again.
