The last one 4-0. I think he went to Wokingham after that and had a spell at Fulham. I hadn't realised he was a Welsh U-23 international until recently. 17 League games , 27 goals conceded (plus - 4-0 defeat in the League Cup) , I was delighted when Jim Eadie took over.
You stumped me on the 70s and 80s questions this time, and they're the one Is can usually get.
