Newport IOW had a player called Eurshall Fearon. When he was subbed the man on the mike tried it twice and finally settled for Mr Fearon.

I played with Eurshall (at Newport and at Bognor Regis), in fact the FA Cup game against Alsershot mentioned on the other thread where I said I scored, I was subbed in the second half at 1-1 for Eurshall who came on and stole my glory by getting the winner! I had asked why I was taken off at the time of coming off and the boss said he needed fresh legs. Five minutes late, Fearon scored and the boss turned to me and said' "Fresh legs to do that!"

He was like lightening. He could tie his shoe laces up while I set off and still get in there before me and I was fit then!! Where I did have the edge was allowing team mates to hit the keeper/post/bar/defender and I'd sniff the rebound. In that game, my strike partner had beaten two defenders, cut in and cracked a beauty from the edge of the box for that first goal..... unfortunately for him, it hit the inside of the post bobbled out into the six yard box, where yours truly had ambled into the box to tap it in :)
