Former Players Upadte

[Dellas Cowboys]

Have to admit I was unaware of Chapman's situation

Thanks, didn't realise Bob Harris was playing at Telford. I expect Jamie Murphy is fairly happy playing in Old Firm derbies for the team he supported as a kid.

 

[LJBlade]

Ah yeah I forgot he had moved

No wonder he can’t get in Oldham’s team

 

[CopenhagenBlade]

Chapman is a good example of why a young player should jump on any good/big contract when it’s offered until he is financially secure.
To get to the level he had requires a lot of dedication and investment, unfortunately for him he might never get the payback

 

[Dellas Cowboys]

That's Bob on the left there isn't it.

How the fuck did that shower of shit ever get to semi-finals? I'd have Coady (should never have let him go), Che Adams and possibly Jamie Murphy back. Think the Harry Maguire ship has ailed...

Barnet were playing Jamal on the left wing before he signed for Carlisle in January

What a shame about Chapman. Looked a cracking little player and came across as a nice kid in interviews. Its never the obnoxious twats who get the career slowing/disrupting/ending injury problems is it? Hope he can come back from it and crack on at a decent level.

It'll be interesting to do a 'where are they now?' from the side that played Hull in the FA Cup semi-final or even Spurs in the League Cup semi.

Even Murphy can't even so much as warm Brighton's bench now.

I did this in January that looks at a few of them

I wasn't McMahon's biggest fan but being honest he is twice the player Harris ever will be. Harris' greatest achievement, apart from being part of the worst defence I've ever seen for Utd (Swindon away in the play-off semi-final), was doing a comical wave before the Bradford game. Entitled to your opinion of course but IMHO he got off lightly compared to some others in the side around that time who were equally useless e.g. McEveley, Alcock

McMahon may well have been a better individual player than Harris but he was an utter shithouse more interested in conducting a running battle with his opponent than contributing to a team effort. I'm not Clough's biggest fan but shipping out McMahon for Harris was a great but of business.

The best bit about this thread is that it made me realise that MK are in serious threat of being relegated. Lovleh.

Hammond has retired, Harris and Baxter haven't played a professional game since leaving us. Edgar is in the Canadian league and Collins in the USA but he hasn't been playing. Flynn can't get in Oldhams team whilst Sammon and McEverley are in the backwaters of Scotland.

Wonder why we struggled for so long?

McEverley isn’t in the backwaters of Scotland no more.. he’s earning a decent living at Tranmere and is considered a complete bombscare even at that level. Think they’re trying to persuade him to retire..

Another big move for Jay. 2 seasons ago he was our captain

See the lads at Tranmere got their way then. Don’t think Higdon is even playing anymore..

That was a terrible cross
