100% won't be Hoggy. I too have had the pleasure and he's a lovely bloke. Just the wording... lauded by many and an absolute mainstay... Unless it's Brooky... but again, such a nice bloke in my opinion! Think Brooky had a major sense of humour failure with us lot outside the ground at the Ibiza tournament, about 80 of us that they wouldn’t let in without pre bought tickets and they wouldn’t let us pay at the gate were stood on the building site for a new bus station I think it was. So every time a ball came flying out of the ground we picked it up and hid it and wouldn’t return it to him for all his pleading about running out of balls, think about 6 balls were given out to the local kids afterwards by us ha ha.

As I say before my time so I cannot comment, however its quite comical reading😂 It's probably a bit harsh on Tim Clarke in this particular thread looking for the biggest plonker. One of the poorer keepers when the backpass law came in yes....plonker I have no idea...might be a lovely chap! That said I do remember the 4-4 vs Bury when we were 4-0 down and everything was going through or past him. The way this normally works is someone else now comes on and says he wasn't playing in that game and my aged memory is failing me again! Tbh, he was a lovely bloke. His missus hated the stick he got. To give opposition to the Bury game, he was superb in the Stoke game ( the one when Dunny won it with the shot that stuck in the stanchion). And, unfortunately, was pretty good at Shrewsbury in the rain.

To be fair I cant see many kit men finding it hilarious that the clubs fans had stolen 6 match balls!

David Graham. Good player on loan, utter prick. One of few ex-City players I can’t stand. Was so lazy for us and I remember him joking with all the Town players whilst you were beaten us. Btw, has no one mentioned Leon Knight yet?!

Before my time but from Wikipedia: He is perhaps best known for his spell as number 1 at Huddersfield Town where his tendency to make mistakes led to his nickname 'Coco'. Town fans at Leeds Road savoured the heart-in-mouth adrenalin rush whenever opponents centred the ball from the wing; the nickname was chanted (and acknowledged) with great affection and humour. 😂😂 I don't remember him ever being as bad as he's made out to be. He struggled when the back pass law came in. But at one point he had one of the best clean sheet records in Town's history. I certainly don't remember him being worse than some of the ones we've had in the last 6 or 7 years for mistakes. From my (poor) memory he was decent in his first season. Then they brought the back-pass rule in and it totally destroyed his confidence.

Do you have an encylopedic knowledge for all things HTAFC past and present?! You're younger than me and know shit loads of stuff before I was born I'm guessing you have read a lot. Get yourself on mastermind You've either got one of them brains that retains an unlimited amount of useless information... or you just regularly google all these topics out of interest?

It was said of him, IIRC, that he was really good in training, but when playing in a competitive match he could be a bag of nerves.

Interesting to see David Graham he refused to play with us on a HTFC golf day we ended up with John Mccombe who had never picked up a club! The biggest prick is still at the club… an absolute mainstay… but that’s only in my opinion pretty sure he is lauded, but he verbally abused and upset my late mother and he is one of 3 people I actually hate… but I will keep my counsel! Surely not Hoggy?? One of the nicest and most sincere bloke I have actually had chance to speak to. Met Hoggy a few times…. Great Bloke!

When I saw that my first thought was Boothy, but me and a few other mates/family have spoken to him several times and he's never been anything other than polite and friendly. Any other guesses out there. Or even better if the instigator could just bloody tell us Or failing that, just kept quiet in the first place, because what was the point quite frankly? This is fair I shouldn’t have put anything! No upside but the man in my mind is a huge prick who as i said behaved disgustingly towards my mum…. It’s not Boothy. But like you said I’d of been better saying nothing!
