Powell record

[glyn]

In amongst another Mercury article about how many records we are going to break this season (talk about tempting fate), was this for you trivia fans

When left-back Chris Powell went on as a second-half substitute for Joe Mattock on Saturday, he became the oldest outfield player in City's history, overtaking the legendary Arthur Chandler in the record books. €˜Channy' was 39 years and 114 days old when he made the last of his 419 City appearances in April 1935, while Powell was 39 years and 145 days old on Saturday.

Powell had already become the oldest City debutant earlier in the season but he would have to play next season to overtake Joe Calvert as the oldest City player ever.

The goalkeeper from the 1930s-40s was 40 years 313 days when he played his final game for the club in December 1947.

Powell has set a new men's world 100 metres record of 9.74 seconds.

Now that's what I call a record.

If I was Powell I'd release a record with them black fellas that were on the eurovision show with the young Irish gay fella and the old camp fella that writes songs. Be a big hit in the club shop and quite possibly the west end too. Perhaps a stylistics cover. I'd probably give Powell a makeover. Perhaps a Don King and pair of star shaped spectacles. Tight leather trousers. Prince Albert. Try and appeal to the older ladies and creepy old gays that hang out in the park and the 1884 bar.
