John Lacy
Always surprised me that he was never mentioned in the same breath, you know, Ossie, Ricky and, er, John
Was there - still vividly recall Chiv's header at the Paxton.
Last ever season of top flight football at Leeds Road.
Love the angle from the west stand looking onto the old shelf.
Poch getting us top of the table for all of 20 mins
Thanks for that. Just discovered a new player I didn't know about before - Mark Kendall:
Mark Kendall (footballer, born 1958) - Wikipedia
He was a young goalkeeper who came through our youth ranks and, although he didn't have much success with us, he kept 28 clean sheets for Wolves in 1987/88 as part of their promotion from the old 4th Division and was an ever-present in the team that won promotion to the 2nd Division in the following season.
It's always nice to hear about players who struggled to make the grade with us achieve success elsewhere even if it's not at top flight level.
I barely remember him, obviously recognise the name.Thanks for that. Just discovered a new player I didn't know about before - Mark Kendall:

Maybe someone like
Nutter-Naylor
or
Mrs Perryman
would remember him better.

Saw him make is debut away at Norwich. 4th November 1978. Drew 2-2. Colin Lee and Peter Taylor.
Yup - was also there that day. Norwich scored a last minute equalizer from a free kick.
Martin Peters of all people!!!
You have a much better memory than me.
All I recall is spending most of the match singing 'i can't read and I can't write but I can drive a tractor, I turns it left, I turns it right, I can drive a tractor' to them.
Yes I remember the name but honestly can't remember if I actually saw him play.I barely remember him, obviously recognise the name.

Yes, that's true but I wanted to focus on his football with my post. He also made his mark outside the game by joining the police force after his playing career ended and eventually became one of their training officers. Very much an unsung hero.
Saw Mark Kendal play a couple of times,at least for us. I liked him as a kid because on my visits to the Cheshunt training ground,he was always socialable. Like Gazza a few years later,I think he still had something of the kid still inside him. A mate of Mine ,who lived near the ground remembers him having a mud fight with him and his mates during a combination fixture!
A long forgotten memory has resurfaced. He was the topic of a newspaper story concerning a weight problem due to his love of peanuts.
