Interesting that nobody picked up on this before!

Regarding future signings, agree that we need at least another winger, plus a CB and possibly another CM?

Obviously first few weeks of the season will tell us if we need more bodies in.

I heard a few people saying 'we need someone big and ugly' up top and many thought Bassett from Eynesbury would fit the bill, however, I believe we've now got someone far better. In doing some research I located a match report from late 2007 where he got MOTM for Leamington against Willenhall and captain for the Brakes that day was Arron Parkinson.

I'm as bad as your old man confusing those two full backs, Watson and Wilson. ;) I suppose we've got that all to come this season when he becomes a regular at the Dog n' Duck.

I knew this name rang a bell, he was a Rushden player some 12 years ago.

Couldn't locate any details on RDFC database but came across this report:-

I'm sure he was a youth or reserve team player. Maybe scanning through some old programs may bring this to light

I wonder if we could get Phil Gukliver as well? :lol:

Great signing, very impressed!!
