Locke----Carey(sweeper)--Taylor(captain)--Bell-

Goodridge-------Hewlett----Doherty------Tinnion

-------------------Goater-----Cramb-------------

sometimes Locke would play midfield..

sometimes Carey would play right back..

sometimes Edwards would play sweeper/left back/midfield..

sometimes Brennan would play left back/left midfield/midfield

sometimes Owers would play right back/midfield..

sometimes Murray would play right back/right wing/striker..

sometimes Bent would play right wing/striker.. (?)

sometimes Goodridge would play striker..

sometimes Torpey would play striker..

AM I CORRECT??

I think Goodridge played up front once, switching there at half time Vs Northampton to expost the lack of pace in defence. Unfortuantly they brought on a different defender and the second half was lifeless. We still won.

Murry was a right back when we signed him!

As for the others, I can't remember what odd occasions they played in different posistions, though I can't see Owers at right back

Owers was a recognised almost ever-present right-back for Sunderland since the way back into the 80's before signing for us.. I could of sworn he played their for us once or twice..

Did Brennan ever play in that promotion campaign ?  I only remember him from the following season.

I Doubt he would of picked up a medal, he definatley played 2 or 3 games, and he played in the FA Cup game on SKY against Bournemouth which we lost 3-1. But i dont think he would of picked a medal up.

As for Goodridge? No Thanks. He looked like a teletubbie when he left us, lost alot of his pace and looked a different player, but on his day could wow a crowd and was a very exciting player.

Sean Dyche played a few games but was often sidelined by injury.

Adam Locke only ever played right back that season, Benny moved him into midfield the following season.

Anyone remember Paul Tisdale? Now at Team Bath I think.

Jason Roberts scored a great goal at Oldham and then walked out due to a dispute about playing for Grenada.

Scott Paterson/Stuart Naylor/Sean Mccarthy/Dominic Barclay to name a few more.

If I remember rightly Rob Edwards was in the team more than Matt Hewlett.
