If Limnos was still around, C Kosti would definately be one of the oldest players in the league.

There was a bloke that played for us the last couple of years called Charlie. He is 73 years old :shock: :shock: :shock:
I'm very happy to have moved to West Ham, because I can play for a better team than Sheffield Wednesday.

Disappointed you forgot Mark"Archie" Deakin, he would have to be older than Iacovino??

You should know things like this Chopper being a die hard Westies Man.

Sounds like Stuey Gannon wins this one at 45. I'm glad he's now playing in our A's as now I'm in the middle age bracket. I'm 10 yrs younger than Stuey and 10 yrs older than anyone else in the 1st team.

My how the worm has turned!! They all scoffed when the lovable Cockney was chosen for the Reserves, the credit must go to Stuey, who has been playing out of his skin since week 1! But I must add.....I told you so!

OTP, I know you were disappointed you didn't get to kick Stuey, but there was no need to bang you head in frustration!

Spot on there Preacher,

Chopper you have spelt players names wrong in numerous posts who have been at the club for numerous years (even in this post),

I believe Mr Chopper is from a struggling Div 3 club located on Francis Road Brahma Lodge.

You are on slightly the wrong track Mr X. It is true Northbri isn't far from Brahma Lodge, but Francis road is erroneous. Div 3 is a strong league, however struggling we are not :roll: :idea: :?:

Not fussed, Mr Chopper - you have confirmed with your comments you are not curently affiliated with PH West, however your support is most welcome, maybe you could get down to some games, support the team, and hang around on a Sunday or Thurs night for a few drinks with players?
