kachina Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Thinking about it, Boston Utd, might have still been a league 2 team when we signed Noble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 There are quite a few from a few years ago. Terry Cooper signed some when City were in division 4 - e g Jon Economou & Martyn Hurst (university student). Before that Alan Dicks found Tom Ritchie from a non league Scottish team and Clive Whitehead who was paying local football in the midlands.

Tom Ritchie only came to Bristol to accompany his brother Steve to a City trial. Got spotted having a kick about and the rest is history. One of the true City greats.

CodeRed Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 There are quite a few from a few years ago. Terry Cooper signed some when City were in division 4 - e g Jon Economou & Martyn Hurst (university student). Before that Alan Dicks found Tom Ritchie from a non league Scottish team and Clive Whitehead who was paying local football in the midlands. Jon Economou joined City as an apprentice in Oct 1979, signed by Alan Dicks - made his debut in the post AG8 game v Fulham. Martyn Hirst was signed by Terry Cooper from Bath City in Oct 1983 Tom Ritchie was signed from Scottish non league side Bridgend Thistle. Clive Whitehead signed from Northfield Juniors in August 1973 One more no one will remember: John Emanuel signed from Welsh non league side Ferndale (1971) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fka dagest Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Ian Brown Brown Brown. Signed by Osman wasn't he? I recall seeing him in a pre-season friendly against Man Utd. He looked a real handful on the day, but his chief asset in the long run ended up being hard work. Is that about right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked a real handful on the day, but his chief asset in the long run ended up being hard work. Is that about right? Can't remember too much about him to be fair. He played in that 3 - 3 draw against United and that's about it. Almost scored the winner against Schmeichel. Had a very good record in non league if my memory serves me right. Never heard of him again after he left us, which wasn't very long after he joined. ****, he has an entry in wiki, how random. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Brown_%28footballer%29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Did alright at Northampton for a season. Osman had no money to be fair so had to pick up non league players like Brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
