Memory Lane Games where that one opposition player destroyed us

[WestyReturns]

Tom Eaves in a 3-3 draw at Gillingham. Nightmare on stilts.

Remember everyone singing "your just a sh*t Andy Carroll". He shut us right up

Che Wilson was the oppositions best player most weeks ...

Incredibly harsh.

Che was a thoroughly good professional, a top bloke and a solid player. Bizarrely, a right footed full back who never looked as comfortable at right back as he did at left back.

A solid, if unspectacular player.

Easy question, without a doubt Lee Trundle at Roots Hall against Swansea.
He was subbed late on and the whole of Roots Hall stood up and clapped him off, he was unreal that day.

Was that the game he nearly scored from the centre circle?.

Bernt Trautmann hat nicht genau das Gleiche getan! Er war Deutscher!

Cant remember that to be honest, just remember whole game he run us ragged.
2005 season.

Seem to remember JET tearing us apart for Gillingham once

I seem to remember that we played Gillingham 3 times at the beginning of one season & J.E.T. played a big part in us losing all 3 games. My memory could be wrong of course.

It is harsh. And he scored away at the inbreds.

We played away at Rotherham and lost badly. The whole Rotherham team were better than us but Keiffer Moore was a class above.

For us I think it was Fortune who hit the post when the whole goal was wide open & Theo Robinson looked at his most abject after another disappointing game.

 

[Texas Eslan]

Slightly random one, and maybe because he was my football hero growing up, but Peter Beardsley in the last game of the 98/99 season for Hartlepool at Roots Hall. He was a class above even at nearly 40 years old.

Rickie Lambert for Bristol Rovers put 4 past us once.

But the one I’ll always remember is Ben Foster’s goalkeeping performance for Wrexham in the LDV Final. Felt like we could’ve played all day and wouldn’t have beaten him, he was that good. So good in fact that Sir Alex signed him for United on the back of that performance after being there to watch his son managing Wrexham in the final. How’s our luck eh?

did he really play that well? I had blocked this match out (like the Blackpool final).

Yeah I thought we got outplayed in that game. Different views, eh?

Martin Bullock for Blackpool
DJ ???? for Brentford

? Campbell ?

Adam Barrett did.

So did Alex Revell. He just couldn't get past Petr Čech.

He also has a sports science degree, a master's degree in biomechanics and is working towards a PhD.

His LinkedIn profile picture looks to be of him taking a throw in for us.

There were certain players who always seemed to turn it on against us and be real pains to play against as they always seemed to rip us to pieces - think the ones I'm thinking of have already been mentioned...Lambert, Coppinger, Trundle in particular.

You obviously didn’t do MK Dons away in that hockey stadium then!

One morning this winter I spent 3 hours clearing snow off my driveway in -15, and that MK game felt colder!
