City Players who came from Non League.

[Tuerto]

A bit of excitement concerning Ollie Tanner, It's a massive jump, but who knows...

I can think of three who came straight from Non league and did brilliantly for us.

Cohen

Bartlett

Delaney

Any more?

[BLUETIT]

I think Gary Bell did

Peter King

According to Wiki, you're correct.

George Andrews came with Gary Bell from Lower Gornal Athletic, just checked on George, 21 goals in 43 appearances, not too shabby at all. The emergence of Tosh, also Bobby Brown & Georgie Johnston at the club may have pushed him down the pecking order but what we wouldn’t give for a striker with that goal to game ratio now.

Hereford?

Hereford?

Indeed. He scored a hat-trick against Forest Green in a 7-1 victory shortly before City signed him.

Didn't realise that Hereford had been away for so long. I'll raise you a Rhys Healey.

If we're just talking about players who came from non-league as opposed to those who actually did well, you can have Jamie Hughes.

Matt Green.

He went on to do pretty well. Scored a load for Mansfield and was at Birmingham for a bit. Darren Adams-Wrexham home-Volley.

Good one. Was it Evesham he came from?

Yes I think so. Must be 40 years ago now. Remember we called him "Basil"

Neil O’Halloran came from Cardiff Corries, scored a hat trick in his debut against Charlton in the top flight while still a teenager........then faded from the pro game after a few more games for us, and one more goal, went to Newport for a short spell. Mostly remembered for his prosperous firm Erection & Welding and his bankrolling of Barry Town. The rewards for a fledgling business man were more attractive than for a first division footballer in the ‘50s perhaps. He certainly made his fortune.

Dai Thomas?

I haven't a clue where he came from but Shirley it was from but doubt it was league club.

Correct.

Jim could kick the ball the hell of a long way both in height and distance. I remember in his first game,there was a collective ooooooh from the crowd forhis first few drop kicks
