I know this one's nothing to do with me, though I thought I'd give you a greenie for it. It's wonderful that you are doing all this and still thinking of others.

No, he was dreadful but he stood little chance as Duncan didn't like strikers by and large. He signed Steve Wilkinson who was an absolute sniffer in the box, the lower league Robbie Fowler, and he played him in chuffin' midfield.

He came from Mansfield. I didn't think he ever actually player for us in the first team. I've got a feeling he was playing for Shirebrook, not that long ago, but he must be over 40 by now

I don't think he got on the pitch in a 'proper' game but I'm pretty sure I saw him turn out at the Baseball Ground for us in the Centenary Cup or whatever it was called.

Good memory WB one proper games as sub and the centenary cup and that was it. One full season in the scabs first team (which I have ragged him about) Leyton orient for a few league games then altrincham, Gainsborough (under Ernie) and other semi-pro local teams.

To do him for tomorrow I may have to do him as he looks now, but in that seasons kit, then do a proper one at a later dat. I'm waiting to hear back from a bloke at Mansfield to see if he can find any from back then. There will be some, it's just finding one in time. First proper challenge.

He was good for Ilkeston at centre half.

Tis done!
I've had to draw him as now in that seasons kit as the photo I have of him is from a team shot and quite distorted. Seeing as I didn't have a lot of time I used a better recent one.
Im posting now on Twitter @badlydrawnspire and Facebook (Badly Drawn Spires)
Enjoy your last day, mate.

You are a total star. Timmo is well chuffed and his wife says you got his nose bang on!
He loved his days at Gainsborough under Ernie which makes it even better...
All the best
