Where are they now ..?

[david in sweden]

a sobering thought after a good win on Saturday and amidst impending transfers in /out was to think about some of those who have " departed " from Saints ranks in recent years.

A quick scan of first games from Saturday saw;

 

Doncaster's side included Simon Gillett, but not Joseph (Fish) Mills who is back with Saints (even if it may be temporarily)..but the name of Wayne Thomas didn't appear anywhere in the Donnies line-up. Donny lost 1-2 , and a certain Billy Sharp scored their goal.

 

David Mc Goldrick played 55 mins. for Notts Forest before being subbed in their 0-0 bore draw with Barnsley, but Dexter Blackstock

wasn't in the line-up.

 

Martin Cranie (now Coventry) was in the side losing 0-1 to Leicester.

 

David Prutton scored a goal in Sheff Wed.s 2-0 win ..and John Otsemobor (who could forget a name like that) coming on as sub.in the last 5 mins.

 

Late sub. apps also for Callum McNish for Exeter and Lloyd James for Colchester.

 

Yeovils new captian Paul Wotton was one of 4 players booked in their 0-2 defeat v Brentford (now being managed by Owe Rosler ) !

 

Ollie Lancashire played 90 mins. for Walsall ..and wasn't booked at all !

 

Aldershots latest signing Anthony Pulis spent 90 mins ..on the bench. We look forward to his debut game for the Shots.

I guess this shows Saints were right to release/sell the players you mentioned, as they all now play below us in the leagues.

 

Wayne Thomas now plays in Greece.

Walcott, Surman, Bale, Mcgoldrick, Blackstock, Dyer, not many clubs have produced that many players that play in the top two leagues in the alst few years. You can add Lallana and Chambo to that list as well.

Dale Stephens scored twice on his debut for Charlton in a 3-0 win against Bournemouth & Scott Bevan was in goal for Bristol Rovers in there 3-2 win against AFC Wimbledon

I think dex is injured.

Apparently Stephens only scored the first and set up the second.

Billy Sharp also got stretchered off and looked in agony.

Hardly a surprise, his leg was broken in 3 places!
