I'm sure I read something in History about a group of people who loved destroying books and libraries. Sometime in the 1930s I think. Can someone remind me who that was??

For me the real question mark is around what Ian Greaves could have achieved. Timing was everything there. Mark McGhee did seem at a distance like the "next big thing". It's just a shame that the big thing in question was his ego...

It's all ifs and buts. Froggatt had a couple of decent seasons with Coventry before he was broken. Daley had a number beforehand with Villa, as did Geoff Thomas. If we'd have bought Mark Walters you could say the same, and Paul Jones somehow shockingly also did. John de Wolf you can say...

Goncalo Kaiser...

Such a complete shame that he was just constantly injured.

Right up there with Gordon Simms for me. I mean, not even making it onto the pitch ever? Shocking stuff.

#superfan, clearly. Oddly, I was thinking of Diaz earlier - played away for 45 mins, was clearly not good enough, but the game was on the TV so more people would have seen him. And yet, zero hatred. Might as well hate the Reverend Richard Leadbeater or even Graham Rodger from the same 84-85...

You joke, but there was a case a few years ago where someone "accidentally" told a prospective buying club about a contractual minimum fee for £40M. That club (which I'm pretty sure was Arsenal) then bid £40,000,001, thus triggering the clause. EDIT: Found it. It was Luis Suarez.

Campbell Chapman actually wasn't such a bad player, and would have been reasonable at that level with better players around him. And it's amazing how people hate Cavan on the basis of one game, away from home at that, which basically no-one saw.

Unfortunately copyright in these situations lasts for 70 full years for something like this, so anything younger than that is always going to be at the mercy of the relevant company, as irritating as that is. Anything from 1953 or before is completely fair game though. I do something...

Paul Blades.

Yes. Vargas and Baker-Whiting.

Or if the Sudu logo was also central, or on the sleeve like the early 80s Le Coq Spurs kit with the central badge had.

It, erm, all looks made for the Chinese market, and similar to the special Shanghai club shop stuff they were showing off a few years ago.

Ian Greaves. Absolutely no question there, given Lop's high maintenance.

I do wonder if this is the long-term response to the stadium expansion plans being put on hold a few years ago. I suspect that Fosun's original plan was to expand the stadium to get in both an increased number of STHs, and allow for a much larger amount of daytrippers from...

Platini and Peter Reid were close under Barnwell before the board pulled the plug. Boniek was close too. Maradona link is rubbish though as far as I know.

At bloody right-back too.

That's the next two years of ST price rises right there.
