    He was 27 when he last played for us.

    Oldest player in the squad is Davies who turned 26 in July.

    Forgot about Mills. I should have said signed in thirties. Lita is a while ago now but four years I was probably pushing it haha.

    Yeah lita was probley 4 years back now. But it's been the way since the relegation under Wilson. When you look at some of the players we now have pinnock 25, Lindsay 23, mowatt 23, Potts 24, dougall 25, moore 25 I could go on but these lads have their best years still to come and glad we have adopted this way of developing players.
