  5. Clean Sheets under SCP

    Heard on Saturday that Oxley kept 16 clean sheets last season - equivalent to 1/3 of our league season. 10 (2/3ish) of those clean sheets were under SCP, which was essentially just the final third of the season. Exciting for next season to think we are twice as likely to keep a clean sheet under...

    Podcast / Fanzine 6: Adam Barrett Unique Purple Signed Shirt

    This is a one off shirt. They were given to the squad prior to the fixture against Walsall in March 2010. It is Purple, as that day SUFC were rasing funds for Polio. Adam did not feature in that game so I guess that makes it even rarer as a one off. The frame is not up to much as the glass is...
  11. Malcolm Webster

    ..... who kept goal for us just over 100 times in the mid-70s has today retired from football. He was never our best goalkeeper nor our worst, but he went on to have a very highly regarded career as a goalkeeping coach.
