Scott Rendell puts out Norwich in the FA Cup and Gavin Tomlin scores the winner at Chesterfield.
Strangely enough it was Pope Gregory the 9th inviting me for drinks aboard his steam yacht, the saucy sue currently wintering in montego bay with the England cricket team and the Balanese Goddess of plenty.
I see Wayne Thomas has returned to the UK after a couple of seasons playing out in Cyprus and Greece.
Good to see him back and at 33 (34 in May) he's still got some miles left in the tank I would think .... so a decent signing I reckon. He's joined up with Paul Buckle at Luton Town!

Good signing that! Shows what funding a decent cup run can bring!
Steve Winter, who played in the Mid 90's for Torquay is still playing. Now close to 40 he is playing for Bishop Sutton in the Western League, same division as Buckland Athletic
