Hi Although I am now living in Brighton I am from a village called Rodington and I have supported Town since 1960 when i went to the Meadow for my first match,so I have seen lots of ups and downs over the years so I thought I would find out what people say would be the best team since then, my team. Ken Mulhearn Jake King Colin Griffin Graham Turner Tommy Lynch Alex Mcgregor Sammy Irvine Ian Atkins Paul Mcguire Alf Wood Chic Bates
Does anyone know what Tommy Lynch is doing nowadays? I know he went and managed a team (possibly Waterford) many years ago....
A slightly more modern squad: Joe Hart RB? Graham Coughlan Mike Jackson Marc Tierney Jon Taylor? Stuart Drummond Ben Davis Mark Wright Grant Holt Luke Rodgers Uncertain of RB, any suggestions or improvements? RM -Derek Asamoah, Lionel Ainsworth
hi i remember rodington, i used to travel on williamsons motorways coach from salop to wellington market on a thursday picking up my aunt cissy from walcot road farm withington. those were the days. not necessarily the best but most remembered. humphries, helmsley pountney mcclaughlin cross, rowley, king, thomas, brown turner and mcclaren
Hi jack i used to get on that same coach every thursday with my mother to go to Wellington we caught it at sugden,my family name is Davies and my mother was Margaret
and my great uncle and aunt were jack and cissy pritchard and their son marshall took over the farm at withington. the coach driver was eddie and the coach normally a bedford ob. harry gregg ex man utd goalkeeper was manager in the 1960's he was a survivor and a hero of the munich air crash
i used to drink in the hare and hounds and the bulls head,names from the past brodie,broadbent,stobart,meredith,ross,dolby,durban,boswell,
Couple of glaring omissions in Pearson, monster at the back and McNally, one of most intelligent players in the last 30 years surely. Wish we could bring back Maguire too to take those corner kicks, when was the last time we scored from one?
and i have fished in the canal at withington and a dead roach came floating by. q which shrews manager signed arthur rowley in 1958? my mother recalls being in a barge at withington pulled by a horse
The board appointed Saint Arthur, as we were managerless at the end of the previous season. Harry Potts had left to join Burnley and his replacement, Johnnie Spuhler, was sacked having failed to get us into the inaugural season of Division 3 (replacing the old regionalised divisions).
Hart Lynch Pearson Holton Tierney Atkins McNally Bell McGuire Holt Griffiths Subs Wardle, Cross, Walton, Kasule, Rodgers
there was a lovely old working smithy in my day in withington. , now a pair of modern semi detached houses. ugh there were iriot planners in those days. probably the same ones that ripped the heart out o0f the centre of shrewsbury. as for rodington when i lived in grange road off roman road we had milk delivered by rodington dairies. one of my favourite players quite modern was luke rodgers
