The best player to ever play at Field Mill?

[Amber Andy]

I remember Peter Beardsley playing for Hartlepool at the end of his career. He came over to take a corner at the North Stand end. One Stags fan shouted "hey Beardsley respect man". It produced a big grin and a friendly wave from PB. Lovely moment.

I remember he got a good round of applause from the Stags fans when he was subbed

Yes, he did. Probably not the best player, however was a top player and well liked.

Surely surely surely this is England's Carlton Palmer?

Also responsible in a two-pronged pincer movement with K. Haslam of actually getting me to boycott my football team for the only time in my life. Isn't that on his Wikipedia, along with all his other 'honours'?

I saw him play for us in a friendly, away at Armethorpe in 1983

Wikipedia needs updating then. Says he made no appearances and I can’t remember seeing him although I was 5 at the time.
