Yer send them to my old stamping ground in Aldershot, and give them Para training, and if that don''t kill them nothing will, these girls blouses couldn''t last 5 minutes on a para assult course,

Herb Give it a rest. There''s plenty, plenty other threads populated by assorted sheep and happy clappies panting and exhaling over the next freebies or other clubs rejects to be signed up. You''d enjoy those posts much more, I''m sure.

Well pardon me for a light hearted response.

Nice to see it was taken in the spirit intended and didn''t go right over your head...

WHOOOOOOSH!

Afraid its been scientifically proven BBB that long hard runs are not that beneficial to footballers. Maybe marathon runners but a footballer on average only covers 7metres per sprint.

I wonder what that wonderful team cost - related to todays market? I wouldn''t mind betting that given the dire state of the club shortly before that cup run, those guys were assembled on the cheap. So now we are back to ''square one'' but before we write the new signings off as ''rejects'' how about we see what happens first? Why we are where we are is another matter entirely, whose fault it is, is another matter, it IS depressing seeing what we have become but the future starts here. Recent years do not inspire much confidence if we dwell on it but I have a feeling that real change and gettting back to basics is happening and that is good.

By all means resurrect thread and this blatant and frowned on burst of optimism if we are in the bottom half by April or not promoted by May 2010. I will admit I am wrong then!!!!!

Ah! But did you know that Winterton involved multiple short sprints up and down the sand dunes - ideal preperation forthe likes of Carlisle and Orient away in February one suspects!!!

Since you ask, it was about £34,000 as far as I can tell.

Butler  £5,000, Crossan £6,000, Hill £8,000 and Brennan £15,000, (we made £22,000 profit when we sold Hill)

Thurlow and Bly came from local clubs, Nethercott and Ashman freshly demobbed, McCrohan player exchange and I believe Butler and Crowe were free because of injury problems.

My old father used to work with Bobby Brennan at Reliance Motors in Heigham Street. He combined his football career with selling Dodge trucks and cattle floats.....

They were proper footballers... not the highly paid fancy dans who disgrace our colours these days......

And if you don''t have anything to say on the field you get an entry like this in Wikipedia - and then beg people to write pigeon English in the hope that you can understand them better

Fernando Albert Derveld (born 22 October 1976 in Vlissingen, Zeeland) is a Dutch professional footballer who currently has no club. Until recently he played for FC Dordrecht in Netherlands. He is a left-back.

 He had a trial with English club Norwich City F.C. in early 2000, though the then City manager Bruce Rioch declined to offer him a contract. Rioch''s successor at Norwich - Bryan Hamilton - did give him a contract when he took over towards the end of the 1999-00 season.

In total, Derveld played 25 games for Norwich, scoring one goal in a 3-2 win at West Bromwich Albion. He struggled to find form and was not held in high esteem by City supporters. When Hamilton left the club in late 2000, his successor - Nigel Worthington - made it clear that Derveld did not figure in his plans, and after a loan spell at West Bromwich Albion, his contract with Norwich was terminated in the summer of 2001.

But still, from that King of Pomposity Bob Marley -

One love.
