Craig Mackail-Smith for me, in his prime was unplayable at non league level - similar to Puncheon in Lg2 when he was with us. For Barnet toss up really - Grazioli was absolutely deadly at non-league level but never quite made it when we went up etc but Nicky Bailey (character issues aside) was head ...

Throw a few that haven't been mentioned: Anthony Thomas - Billed a the Non-League Hotshot with if I recall something like 50 goals in a single season at Hemel and barely scored for us and ended up serving jail time for animal abuse Jordon Parkes - England Under 18 International Hovering around Watfo...

We have had a few 'hard' players in the past - and arguably in the same era: John Ford had a bit of a vicious nature to him - still remember him running half length of the pitch to headbutt PBoro's Jimmy Quinn in our 9-1 trouncing when I think Graz got 4 for them and Rust was in goal - that was a bi...

Will offer a view on the other side of the fence as for me building any new school and offering further choice for parents is a good thing for local residents. Ravenscroft has been around for years and although I admit I haven't taken a recent interest having long finished schooling (and didn't know...

Jason Norville is still out for the season with a stubbed toe

As much as the people there were c*cks, you want to concrete over a club's leisure facility that many enjoy that has been there since the 1900's and drive them out of their home. Is that not a little hypocritical regardless of what we think of those that use the facilities. Of course it's massively...

Apart from the obvious question - why was Nugent brought in if Eames was the man for the job all along? My other big question is why decent, experienced managers don't appear to want a job at Barnet? Surely, if they did, one would've got the job. We hear these stories - and they may be just that - ...

I think it all depends on the level of coaching, few years ago I employed the sister of Alex McCarthy who at the time was on loan from Reading at Reading went on loan to Brentford and despite only 1 division at the time between the clubs was instantly amazed and unhappy at Brentfords lack of investm...

While I think the idea of a Head/Director of Football is a good thing I think the jury is out regarding Mr Thorne's qualifications for the job particularly regarding coaching and first team player recruitment. TK's Premiership experience quote is a bit tenuous looking at James background linkedin.co...

Agree with alot of the names mentioned but to throw a number name into the mix who played a fair bit for us:

Ross Flitney - billed as "little Edgar" with Premier League Pedigree he was completely pony in his couple of seasons with us - not to mention getting sent off against Utd

Mark Marshall has to be in there based on original criteria Anwar Uddin seemed to go missing for large parts of the season (both when fit and not :hi:) Adam Gross had a sicknote spell I seem to recall Jake Hyde loved an injury Jon Nurse seemed to always have an niggle or too Michael Gash of late has...

Unless my eyes decieve me isn't that a picture put up under heading Michael Hector of our infamous couldn't hit a barn door Charlie Taylor !!?

Bailey also a favorite player of mine but have good mates who are Boro and Millwall fans and both echoed the fact that sadly owing to some quite serious injuries Baileys legs are gone, he sat out his contract at Boro as he was on decent money and did similar at Millwall where he couldn't stay fit. F...

Jog my memory guys. Was it Nicky Devedics or Nicky Nicolau who wouldn't stay at Barnet because they (he & his manager) believed that they could do better with another club, and then struggled to get one? May be history repeating itself with David Stephens. Was Nicolau - still remember the day I...

Also has anyone seen sign of ex-Bees of Nicky Bailey and Nicky Deverdics? I've seen (completely unsubstantiated) rumours of David Stephens at AFC Dons and in the US. From my Millwall supporting mate, Bailey's legs are unfortunately completely shot following a number of serious injuries and was on £...
