He also clapped us at the end of the game when we played them last, which I thought was nice of him. Shame he left us, did like him when he played for us.

hilarious step-over routine.

 

[Nobby Snide]

Good solid LB...Just what we need right now...(but not him, he's too old now)

 

[Rattus Norvegicus]

Our player of the year in ........ too many years ago to remember. According to the BBC he is now 39, made 23 appearances for Yeovil this season but is now leaving the club.

Great goal against Rushden

Wasn't Nathan at all....it was Damon Searle lol

 

[Medway Blue]

Even better one in his last game for us at home against Cheltenham in 1999/2000.

 

[Winkle]

Sign him up cos "Nathan Jones, youv'e been gone to long........."

 

[shrimp in orbit]

Saw him play for Yeovil this year. None of those great runs down the left wing, but sound in defence

At the age of 39 most players are long retired - so I'm not surprised that the runs up the wing are restricted! I wonder if he will try and get another club or management position lower down the leagues.

Yep quality run from him pretty much the length of the pitch and fantastic finish from distance I seem to remember to win us the game 2-1 having been 1 down. At 1 nil down we'd had to suffer too much delirious chanting of 'Cheltenhamshire la la la " as Cheltenham were going for Play Off place I think. That went out of the window for them with that last gasp goal.

 

[ESG]

Installed as caretaker boss at Brighton after Sammy Hypia resigns

 

[manor15]

Currently first team coach at Brighton, but reportedly set to be announced as the new Luton Town manager.

So we'd be back to five (?) ex-Shrimpers as PL/FL managers?

(Edinburgh, Allen, Freedman, Harris...Jones)

Anyone remember his mazy run that started from the edge of our penalty box which led to the winning goal he scored in the 90th minute against Cheltenham on last day of 1999/2000 season? 2-1 victory that day if i Recall.

2000 ? He's been gone too long

 

[MK Shrimper]

Been gone too long.

Edit: Damn you Firestorm! :angry:

 

[Rattus Norvegicus]

Was that the year he was named as player of the year ............. and promptly left. And it happened again shortly afterwards I think.

Thank goodness those days are behind us ...................... or are they?

 

[Seedy Nigel]

Yes I think everyone knew that he was going to leave. We were a very mediocre bottom half Division 3 club at the time and it was a chore watching us play. Can't blame him at all for moving onto Brighton at the time.
