Apologies if any of you think this is not really relevant but I know a lot of your fans still hold Craig Disley in high regard.

At Luton on Saturday, he will make his 600th league appearance (quite a lot of non-league ones in there though)

Here's an interview with him in the press.

He was never my favourite player like some but that is a fantastic achievement. And for the record, no I wouldn't.

Good article... thanks for posting.

Away to Braintree also has bad memories for me as well.
Great achievement for Dis. I'll always remember his towering header for the first goal against Lincoln in the play-off semi-final.

Great article! Well done Dizza! 600 appearances! Memories of him smashing Scott Murray out of the first leg in the JPT at Ashton probably my favourite Dis moment! He left some tickets for me that night at Ashton Gate - it was a nightmare collecting them! All the way around the ground (in enemy territory!) to the ticket office and back to the East End!!!

My second favourite Disley moment was in hospitality and introducing his wife and daughter to a bloke who had spend 10 minutes telling me how useless he was!!! Ha ha!!!

He was an unused sub in our excellent 2-1 win at Luton today. Home to Crewe next Saturday and I'm sure we'll see Diz at some stage.
