Off the top of my head I can't think of many good wingers we've had here. Was Walters a out & out winger? Mark McKeever was right up there, remember one of his first games, Reading away, I've never seen a better wingers performance since. Muzzeys last half of the season wasn't that bad either. Off the top of my head players I remember exciting me at times that were either out and out wingers or played wide are Harold Jarman Bobby Jones Kenny Stephens Mark O'Connor Micky Barrett Miah Dennehy Kenny Hibbitt Mark McKeever Ryan Williams Mark Walters Mustapha Carayol Sammy Igoe Kenny Hibbitt a winger/out wide???

Bloody good point ! Peter Lorimer at Leeds had his shot measured for speed. Hooper's shot must have been similar !

Amen. He's the winger that sets the standard by which all Gas wingers have so far failed to live up to. I knew him a bit in his older days and you couldn't wish to meet a more humble and respectful man, very bashful about his previous glories. 496 games, 92 goals. 5th most capped Gas player, 8th highest goal scorer. One of only 3 men to have played for the Gas for over 15 years. Browner's got some way to go yet!!

In a way, Andy Monkhouse, came in at a difficult time for the club, used his experience and helped guide us to promotion chipping in with a fair few goals and assists, certainly did a job for us and faced no ill manner when he left, top bloke!

What a great interview. Kyle seems very confident in front of the camera and talked well about his career and his reasons for coming here (along with the usual platitudes!). Looks like he'll fit in really well with the team spirit and ethos that DC has going at the club and credit to DC for selling the club to him.
I do like the way DC works. In the absence of big money being available he seems to be pretty good at picking out low cost players who will fit in and add to the team both in playing quality and team spirit. Mensah looks another great example, albeit he is a lot younger. Seems a real character but also hard working and skillful based on the comments from Aldershot fans.
Partington came with similar feedback from his previous club as well if I remember correctly.

Ray Graydon Colin Dobson Stuart Barraclough Boris Percy Bodin Glad Dobson got a mention, may have been past his best when he came to us but boy could he cross a ball! Smash, Grab, Rudge and Staniforth all appreciated that! Graydon and Jarman were the wing pairing when I first watched the gas...those were the days!

When Colin Dobson managed Coventry reserves he wouldn't allow them to pass back as an experiment one season.I refereed there a couple of times per season (Highfield Road) and he always briefed me on this before the game but of course I couldn't penalise players for a back pass.Bit weird.

How did they get on?

Although I was too young to see him live, my old man tells me Mickey Barrett was brilliant. RIP. He certainly was, Chris Waddle like. RIP He was a great talent. It still chokes me up, just to think of the sad end to his life. RIP.
