Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for)

Holy shit....

Tip of the hat that man.
 
Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for)

I'm guessing a pathological (although healthy) hatred of women & a recent redundancy?
 
Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for)

Slightly train-spotter-esque, but this (for me) is the all-new post of the year!

2 questions:
- do you read the ex-files in the match day programme?
- have you got too much time on your hands?
 
Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for)

WOW!!!!

You win my Aspie of the Year trophy!!!!

:)
 
Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for)

Good work that man. You sad git :icon_wink

How did you guess?

2 questions:
- do you read the ex-files in the match day programme?
- have you got too much time on your hands?

Question 1: I did once.
Question 2: As of a couple of weeks ago, yes.

You sad git :icon_wink

Correct.
 
Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for)

Good job sir!

That last I heard of Stuart Wilson, he was at Coalville.
 
Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for)

nice, perhaps you should take up religion

Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for)

:038: :038: :038: Splendid work.

You should get out more. Fresh air is good for you.

It's nowhere near as difficult as I make it look. :icon_bigg

I'll get plenty of fresh air when I'm walking round Glasgow in a couple of weeks...
 
Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for)

"Nicole Wright - appears on several websites as having been in our squad against Charlton in 2002 but actually never existed. Was a typo for Tommy"

Now that's what you call a complete list!
 
Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for)

Now can we have them in chronological order?
 
Re: Ex-players (the thread nobody's been waiting for)

And with all of their teams since leaving City and then start working back a year at a time until you get to Arthur Chandler.

Thanks

before 7pm
