Wasn't Villa the interest in Nathan ? I thought it was Chelsea....? I just seem to recall it being Villa because he supported them as a kid, but it's a few pints ago now

Great to see Gerry looking so well, I worked at Hopkinsons at same time as him, I always got on really well with him.

That name's a blast from the past!! Played against him as a junior. If I recall correctly he played for Netherton. He was a good 'big un' back then in the Gelpack League. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_MidwoodHe had a stellar time in 1998 playing for Doncaster Rovers, where he played on average nearly 3 games a day ! Yes, I saw him at Netherton and he stood out , but he was physically bigger than the others . I remember telling people when Town took him on that he was going to be a good un. He didn't make the grade here and I think Gerry got rid, rumour was bad attitude. Attitude can't have been that bad, we re-signed him later on. A couple of years older than me, he looked head and shoulders above all the other kids in Netherton.

He was stand out at junior level, I heard Gerry got rid of him . That's why I hope the question was asked . We are going back over 30 years here.
