Keith Wright (nondescript Scottish striker) picks his choice from guys he has p;ayed with. In goal he has John "Budgie" Burridge who played one season for Hibs when he was 42. He used to travel from N/Cle every day on the train, keeping a old moped chained up at Waverley Station, get off the train, don his helmet and some old keeper`s gloves and ride to training. He was never late, missed a day, left the toon at 6.30am, (GNER Reliability), and was known to stop back for extra training.

Just summat I heard in a bar in Blyth. Sadly (or perhaps happily) I can't recall the details. But I'm sure he left Spartans with "allegations" ringing............

Flogging knocked off designer gear. Allegedly.
