Last thing I heard he had just moved to Dover (from Kettering), but that was 2 or 3 years ago. No idea what became of him then.

He was a bit lazy and slow sometimes. I remember one match where the quickest he ran was to get off the pitch when Barry Lloyd substituted him. He did come in for some unfair stick though.

Is he an agent these days?
Saw him at an Albion reserve match earlier this season.

He had about his best 12 games for us after he got out of Lewes nick.
However fnatastic goal from about 45 yards at Plymouth, in the days when we only took about 150 fans away.

I heard he now runs a pet shop in Dudley, specialising in exotic reptiles, arachnids, and predatory tropical insects.

To be fair though, I think that goal was in the Auto Windscreen Bosch Wiperblade Memorial Cup preliminary qualifying round 1st leg, or something. I think I'd struggle to muster up the enthusiasm to make a midweek trip to Plymouth for that.Uncle Buck said:

Nope, it was a Div 2 game, Saturday before Christmas in 1994. It was just after Shilton had admitted he was skint due to gambling. They had that England U21 keeper in goal (who later died in a motorbike accident). I believe Brady brought Stuart Myall in for his first start in god knows how long and played him as a holding midfielder. Bob the Cod got 2, one from 45 yards and Akinbyi(sp) got the other and did somersaults as part of his celebration. We were on the open terrace behind the goal and it rained all game. I think there were about 150 of us there. We got kept in afterwards as the locals were waiting in the park, so we were escorted via the mainstand and let out at the other end of the ground.
Oh and the fatty taxman got locked in the ground, as he went for a dump and they let us all out.

I bow to your superior knowledge then Uncle B.
Beer has clearly destroyed the braincells that would have recalled that.

I was 17 at the time, so not drinking as heavily, thus I have some recollection of the game....
