Eddie Hitler Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 I don't know what happened to him when he went to Swindon. At City he was clearly talented but so lightweight he kept being pushed off the ball and couldn't tackle for toffee. When he arrived at Swindon he became a tough-tackling hard man midfield general and became club captain. Maybe it's Arkells ales? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MaloneFM Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 He was toughened up in trning by practising tackling on well known fat bastard good time Charlie, Lee Peacock. I have got a lot of time for Peacock. Especially his goalkeeping feats at Hillsborough a few seasons ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinmansboots Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 Met him at Butlins a few years ago, his Mum had a caravan down there, had a good chat about City and football in general, really nice lad but he wouldn't have a go on my surf simulator, said his back still wasn't right.

stortfordred Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 Matty Hewlett....a player I watched growing up. Seems so long ago now but always rated Matty Could never understand why he was often the butt of criticism. Smooth player for me. Always appeared to have time on the ball before injury. However I've always been biased towards young players coming through. Always thought Hewlett was a rolls of a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nebristolred Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 First memory of City (apart from friendlies) is him hitting the post in the FA Cup against Everton in 98/99, lost 2-0 to 2 Bakayoko goals I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paignton red Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 Can't remember who we were playing, but as the tannoy bloke was reading out the team, he announced "Matt Hewlett". A voice behind me shouted "GET 'IM OFF" !!! Cue everybody cracking up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City vs Rovers Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 The question is.. Are we dedicating this thread to the player Matt Hewlett, or the forum poster MattyH? Don't know if he posts anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
