    Conor's not daft is he, this deal is for him just as much as it is for us. He wants the coaching part of it, and it's a learning experience for him now at his age.
    I really hope though, that hes still got some nifty tricks or two up his sleeve, as a player for us. :D

    I've decided to get all faux annoyed if anyone responds with credentials that don't match exactly with what I set out. So now we're sworn enemies! :)

    I didn't realise Norman was ever a player coach. You learn something new every day.

    Was Norman still officially a player though, when we made him our new manager, in season '80 ?.

    Appointed coach in 1975 apparantly. Got to admit I wasn't aware. Until I looked at his period before Clarke joined.

    According to wiki.
    In November 1975 he was appointed player-coach aged 35 years and was restored to his former right-back role and was an ever-present during the 1976–77 season. He made his final appearance aged 38 years in April 1978 against Torquay Utd.

    Malcom Shotton? Was he a coach when he turned out for us in 1996?
