Anderson, Louis Donowa and John Gayle had brief spells with us in
the 1990s. Andy Saville led our front line in the late 1980s, and
also appeared in the claret and blue of Burnley. Liam
O'Neill, Dennis Peacock and David Wilson also played for both
clubs, while the recently departed Gavin Ward also did the same. |
