Second time it's happened. I hope it isn't going to become a habit.

Two yellow cards. The first causing a penalty to QPR, from which they equalized to 1-1

Had an absolutely lovely left foot, at a time when when most of the team knew how to kick a ball. More to the game than that, but he's still had a long career at a decent level. Hope he does well coaching

Ahhhh him and Jordan Stewart down the left, at Quorn in a preseason friendly, with Martin Allen as manager. How excited and naive I was.

Wasn’t Sylla gone by then? Sure he left before Martin Allen arrived.

I can’t remember. My memory is of the dynamic left hand side pairing of Stewart & Sheehan, with Jimmy in goal and Allen shouting at them. That’s pretty much all I’ve got from that day.

Did we have a team at Oadby Town on the same day, or was that another year?

Very likely. We had enough right backs to play several games simultaneously.
