Unofficial Halesowen Town FC Forum

Aah, I didn't link the 2 bits. Of course. Static.
Wouldn't it be fun if the ref had a gun.

Winner!

As an aside to the massive sidebar that we’re already on, who was the other ex-Bluenose who Hally signed at more or less the same time as Harding?
From memory, squat, bald, midfield, equally immobile, played about twice.
I’ve a hazy memory of a sort of old man’s first name and a surname that begins with a vowel.
Undoubtedly wrong on both counts.

The sort of name that's slowly surfacing from my consciousness is something like "Sam Odsall"
Keep in mind though that this is very wrong.

“Kenny Upstart”

“Bob Urine”

"Jimmy Oboe"

I'm adding one an hour until someone puts me out of everyone else's misery.

Mick Halsall? (I know that doesn't qualify for the vowel part) But he was small and bald and not very good

That's the one.

As always, when you half-remember something and say, "His name definitely begins with an X" it never does.

I was all ready to go with "Seth Orangutan" as well...

No. I think he played for Ipswich.
