Started this thread a few years ago on one of the old forums, thought it would be worth starting again.
So what premiership players have been seen at Nene Park?
I seem to remember Dave Kitson (former reading striker) turned out for a team against us in our football league days (cant re-call who for though)
Can anyone think of any others?

Re: Premiership players seen at Nene Park
Didn't we play Arsenal in a friendly, with Henry and a few other big names starring?
We also played Newcastle (there is a YouTube video somewhere) with Beardsley (amongst others) playing.

Danny Murphy turned out for Spurs in a pre-season friendly a few seasons ago.

Re: Premiership players seen at Nene Park
In league games, because if we're counting pre-season games then the list is endless:
Craig Fagan with Colchester, now with Hull.
Greg Halford with Colchester, now at Wolves.
Joe Hart with Shrewsbury, now with Birmingham & England.
Clarke Carlisle with QPR, now at Burnley.
Michael Duff with Cheltenham, now at Burnley.
Wade Elliot with Bournemouth, now at Burnley.
I reckon we have played against Leon Cort too, who is now at Burnley.

He played for Liverpool in the prem, and at a guess i'd say he played for Notts County. I always get him confused with Willy Gueret.Formic wrote:This could be a long thread !
I'll throw one in, to see who can name who he played for - without cheating ....
