Kingys Ginger Mullet Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 (edited) I thought I'd start a thread to monitor the movements of former Owls and progress of players we release. I only recently noticed once former promising right back, Ash Baker, moved on from Newport County last summer and signed for The New Saints in the Welsh league https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ash_Baker UTO Edited May 4 by Kingys Ginger Mullet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingys Ginger Mullet Posted July 15 Author Share Posted July 15 Bored, so I looked up a few more former Owls to see what they are up to... Vincent Sasso, currently at Boavista (decent move for him that!) following a previous couple of seasons in Portugal, post us, at Belenenses and 84 appearances for Servette. Frederico Venancio - currently at Eibar in La Liga who have just been relegated to the 2nd tier, spells at other Iberian clubs, Vitoria Guimaraes and Lugo following us Frederik Nielsen - just been released by Skive in Denmark, nice kid, hope he finds another club Paul McLaren - currently NW Regional Scout at Man City Luke Boden - currently playing for Orlando SeaWolves in the US Indoor league Ben Sahar - still only 32! Currently plying his trade back home at Maccabi Haifa Steve MacLean - first team coach at St Johnstone, passing on his finishing tips to Stevie May no doubt Paul Heckingbottom - Pig Farmer Tenuous link: Yann Songo'o, brother of Franck Songo'o, currently in Bradford City's first team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrolMong Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 Ryan Jones would have had a very good premier league career. Had the lot as a footballer, big and strong, very good in the air, cracking left foot, mobile. I liked Tony Crane too, was never a central midfield player, remember is winning at Rotherham on New Years Day and he was immense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lousy bastard tried to set me up. I almost put my foot in it at the speedway once. I got chatting with a lady on the terraces at Owlerton and we were talking about the Edinburgh team. I said we'd used quite a few riders that season but a number of them hadn't been up to much. I mentioned 2 or 3 names at that point. She then says, "my son is a speedway rider" "Who's that?" I politely asked "James Birkinshaw" Fortunately, I didn't include him in my list of duffers as I actually thought he was ok. Could've turned out quite embarrassing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl71 Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 Another goal for Richard Wood yesterday. Theo got the winner for Blackpool this afternoon. Shaw made his debut for Morecambe without getting subbed yesterday. Penney also played the whole 90 for Motherwell in the pub league. Berahinho came on with half an hour to go in a 0-2 home defeat for Cypriot relegation candidates AEL Limassol. Fessi’s team still undefeated and winning the Malaysian league easily, he’s 2nd top scorer behind Brazilian team mate Bergson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
