    Hughes given away a penalty.

    He is a bit clumsy tbh.

    Be thankful Brighton missed it .

    I was speaking with a Palace season ticket holder and he says they are raving about him. Had to wait for his chance but has been brilliant for them over past few games.

    He’s a cracking player and one I was desperate for us to hold onto. :(

    Kevin Phillips: Ex-Sunderland and England striker named South Shields boss.
    The prolific striker, who was capped eight times by England, is taking on his first managerial role after holding coaching positions since retirement.
    He replaces Graham Fenton as manager of the seventh-tier side.

    We signed him from Baldock Town, I think, when he was about 21. He owes more to Southampton than us, although they ultimately rejected him, considering him too small, he did six years there as a kid and an apprentice, before going semi-pro with Baldock.

    Remembered he came from Baldock-so maybe my beloved Hatters didnt want him either,or he was too TALL for them. Must admit had forgotten about being at Southampton earlier to Vicarage..lucky for them they didnt think the same about Tiny Shearer.
    Wont be unearthing any more Phillips,Endeans while WFCs in the top league

    No, they’ll be whisked off to bigger clubs by scouts and pushy parents with no compensation to the Horns. Probably irrelevant which league we’re in. It will be like this till the FA take control, i.e. never.

    Obviously Ray Lewington has Watford connections, but what are Tommy Baldwin’s? He has our name in brackets after his name and I don’t know why.

    Of course, things dried up for the Chelsea 1970 #3 and the day job beckoned.



    Whereas, presumably, the Chelsea 1977 #3 went back to pirating.

    If Tommy Baldwin played for Watford I must have blinked and missed it

    I always thought Pussetto was a bit too lightweight to knock anyone over - here he is this evening knocking over Lazio coach Sarri...
