Spurs youth journeymen - Where are they now?

[whitelightwhiteheat]

Steve Slade - last seen in Barking in 2008, apparently. Alert the hounds!

Dave McEwen

What an illustrious career!! I can't remember him making one appearance for us

 

[kishman]

Fenn and Allen really take me back, i remember Allen (or was it Fenn) scoring against Man Utd.

I also remember when we nearly signed Qu Bo but his work permit was rejected as was Bobby Convey's and Diego.

A few other mentions, who played for us a few times but are still around.

Johnnie Jackson was going to be the next Hoddle wasn't he?? :up:

 

[RickyVilla]

Ian Sampson

An intertoto cup legend!!

 

[danielneeds]

Johnnie Jackson was going to be the next Hoddle wasn't he?? :up:

He has to be the slowest winger I have ever seen. Made Bentley look like greased lightning.

 

[Jimmypearce7]

What about John Hendrie? Two goals in our last win at Highbury?

Danny Hill, local boy who was a real talent?

Ally Dick?

That Northern Irish winger who went to play in Scotland?

 

[ryantegan]

What about Lee Barnard?

Last seen at Southend.

And Darren Caskey? last seen plying his trade for Halesowen Town in the Southern League.

both these 2 grew up near me in basildon. I played footy with Darrens brother and he bought Justin Edinburgh, Dean Austin and I think it was Andy Turner to a presentation.

I argued about the Santini appointment with Lee Barnard at a party without knowing who he was. It did seem strange that he kept saying it would be harder for us younger players, I thought he'd seen me play and was bigging me up! lol

Paul Mahorn's another one:

I remember this fella as being atrocious. Slow and couldn't hit a donkey's ass with a banjo!

:rofl: brilliant stuff Ryan mate! Barnard I thought looked good on his couple of appearances for us.

And Andy Turner, christ yeah! left winger (I think?)

I've seen a bit of Darren Caskey for Halesowen the past couple of years, he's got a bit of a Billy Big Balls reputation, he takes all the corners, free kicks, penalties (throw-ins, goal kicks, kick offs, washes the kit, drives the bus to games, etc etc) - still a decent player though.

 

[BringBack_leGin]

Danny Hill is one who should have made it :-(

Mark Gower could have done better than he did had we given him a chance, so much ability.

We had Chris Suttons younger brother John with us as a yoof, he was meant to be pretty good but we never gave him a chance. He's mid 20's now and doing fairly well in Scotland.

I saw Turner make his debut. Anyone remember Scott Houghton and Jeff Minton?

 

[RickyVilla]

Turner was brilliant from what I remember. Scott Houghton had that funky shaved back and sides barnet and was a bit on the heavy side. Mintons name rings a bell but never saw him play

 

[Maradona10]

blondel played against us in the wafer cup two seasons ago for some belgian side

 

[whitelightwhiteheat]

I saw Turner make his debut. Anyone remember Scott Houghton and Jeff Minton?

I remember both. Houghton was a bit of a rotund central midfielder I think? And Minton went on to play for Brighton if I recall correctly.

 

[whitelightwhiteheat]

I'm just looking at this Spurs website: http://www.mehstg.com/whereare.htm

"Where Are They Now" - ex-Spurs players.

And there under B is John Barnes.... what's the John Barnes Spurs connection - anyone know? He was never with us, was he?

 

[HodisGawd]

I remember in Champ Andy Turner (MLC) was a pretty handy youngster as was Scott Houghton (AMRC)...

 

[AngerManagement]

I saw Turner make his debut. Anyone remember Scott Houghton and Jeff Minton?

These are the three players I was going to mention

I remember seeing Minton on his debut against Everton scoring (maybe twice) as we turned a three nil half time lead into a 3-3 thanks to Beardsly

Houghton was a short stumpy gingerish guy I remember him scoring a great goal than fading into nothing

Turner seemed to be a great player, I think he was the youngest goal scorer in the PL at one point. I remember seeing him score the 3 in a floodlight win over Man City and also he scored the winner in a dramatic win over Everton one time.

Gosh I was a young school kid when all this was going on
