Here is a couple of nice ones for you from our promotion year



Pretty sure I have seen him score a header at Exeter as well in his first year

He looked quite threatening when he played behind the main striker especially in is early days


I can't believe there is a YouTube video of him. Surely this has been made by one of the three: a) himself b) his wife or c) his mother.

As for 'way back' he reminds me of Randall. Mark, not Kevin. And that's not good.

He is like Mark Randall in that he isn't good enough for League One, and he fancies himself slightly more than the average man.
On the flip side, Ollie achieved more for the team in his first 4 months of playing, than Randall will achieve in his entire career.

That would be Mark Randall who is currently plying his trade in the Championship with MK Dons would it (admittedly usually on the bench and not yet used)? Hmmmm?????

Is he still there? Either way he's useless.

It seems he is going on trial for an alleged sexual assault on a woman.

Pushing it to say he is "plying his trade"...he's not appeared at any point so far this season and sparingly used in League 1 last season.

Appears he signed a two year deal last season to see him through to the end of this season but has this court case as you mention and also appears to have been injured.

More like MK are letting his contract run down rather than MR plying his trade.

Just remind me since signing for them how many starts he has made.

What Banks needs is a few goals. What's mostly missing from his game is not so much his defending, but his confidence to drive forward and shoot or get on the end of passes, as he did at FCUM. First goal for a year says it all. That's not to say he doesn't need to learn more about the defensive side of the game.

As he did when first brought in under Cook for us playing just behind the striker not just with FCUM.

The video was put up by Full Contract his agent and why not, it contains some splendid goals from CFC official videos

And as for reminding you of Mark Randall, see above

Well we all should really, especially you support a L1/L2 team al your life

Seriously, I think we should look back and enjoy some really good goals and appreciate what a serious prospect he was in 2013/2014

But I only posted that video because someone was claiming he'd never seen Banks head a ball

Probably, I'd have thought CT was rubbing his hands thinking we had a real prospect on our hands and thinking how we could fritter away the proceeds of any sale

I know he was only playing against the Miller's youngsters but he worked hard for 90mins and was all over the pitch spraying some lovely balls to our forward line.He scored a cracker to follow up from the FC game, hopefully this has given him the kick up the butt he needed to fight for a place in the 1st team.
On the other hand Byron Harrison is a different story,once again he looked as though he wasn't bothered and unless he wakens himself up, I think Deano will offload him to a lower league club if anyone wants him. It's a pity because he's done well scoring 4 in the reserves, then last week had a bit of a spat with the boss followed by last night's poor showing.
The shinning light has been Manni this season he's coming on well and scored another 2 last night and his effort was non stop.
