WITH Town’s season on hold for the weekend, I’m going to take the chance to take a quick trip down memory lane and look at the three best and three worst players, starting with the latter.

THE worst

3 Martin Williams

ONE of the infamous Colin Todd signings in August 2000, after scoring twice on his debut, it was all downhill from there for the striker. He was shipped out after five months after 24 appearances and three goals.

2 Jon Stevenson

SIGNED by Andy King in July 2003, the quick forward never looked like a Football League player. He made just the one league start and a handful of appearances in cup competitions.

1 Kasali Yinka Casal

THE Nigerian U-20 international defender signed for Town on a two-year deal for an undisclosed fee in August 2008, making his debut on the opening day of the season in a 3-1 win over Tranmere.

He made just five more appearances before moving on, surprisingly to Romanian champions CFR Cluj.

THE BEST 3

Sam Parkin

SUPER Sammy joined Town for just £50,000 in August 2002 from Chelsea after failing to impress at Northampton, where he netted just five times in 40 games.

He scored a hat-trick on his debut in a 3-1 win over Barnsley and, over his three seasons at the club, scored 73 goals in 142 appearances.

2 Massimo Luongo

AUSTRALIAN international Luongo first joined Town in March 2013 on loan from Tottenham and made an instant impact on the side.

Easily the most naturally gifted midfielder I’ve ever seen play for Town, it’s obvious that he will be moving on sooner rather than later, so let’s enjoy this class act while he is still around.

1 Charlie Austin

SIGNED for just £50,000 from Poole Town in October 2009, despite being at the club for just 15 months, the young striker made a huge impression, his goals alongside Billy Paynter helping Town finish inside the play-offs in the 2009-10 League One season.

He moved onto Championship Burnley in January 2011, and is now playing in the Premier League for QPR.
