At 32 year old. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Howard_(footballer) Barring Reading, his career's took a nose dive since leaving us.
Since the 2007-08 season, Liverpool and Chelsea and all that and 14 goals, he's scored a grands total of 6 goals. 7 years, 10 clubs, 6 goals. Go get 'em Bri.
posted this a few months ago, a very very good read http://www.eastleighfc.com/2015/01/23/the-mcnamara-interviews-with-brian-howard-2/ of note he was offered a 12 month deal by the club at the start of the season.
Great little player for us. Legend? Possibly. In fact, yes. Legend. Career's gone downhill ever since, but what a career he had with us. Loved Brian Howard. Good luck to him.
Howard, McIndoe, Campbell-Ryce, Bogdanovic, Colace... A lot in that era thought grass was greener on the other side
I can't lump Howard in with the likes of Bogdanovic and McIndoe. And I remember most of us being pleased when we got shut of JCR. He was a busted flush by then, but he too gave me some great memories, just like Howard.
