Another one from 2016 was Jack McBean. Retired from football in 2018. Would only have been about 23.

That League 1 team in 2016-17 I think would have struggled in the National League (perhaps mid table)

Retired through choice, or injury?

It was injury I think but he was shite. He scored a few at u23 level which shows exactly why nothing should be read into it

Reminds me of Che Bunce who we brought over from New Zealand during the Micky Adams years. Left without playing a game and saw that he’d become an estate agent back home.

That said, Wiki also says he’s a lawyer, so could be complete bollocks.

Was a foot injury that finished his career. Shame for him. Was one of the weirdest signings we've made in a number of years though (and there's some bloody good competition for that).

I swear I just saw Gary McSheffery walking towards the Open Arms.

Put a bit of timber on by the looks of him.

I thought he was poor. Hard worker but limited ability from memory.

All a bit hazy though, they were dark years.

I thought Rose looked like a good athletic footballer in reality he wasn’t, he never stood out in the mls games I saw him play

Consider myself reasonably knowledgeable on City as most if us here probably do the amount of time we spend discussing players attributes or lack of them and yet these just a few short years back and I can honestly say I don't remember a couple of them and have never even heard of Charles Vernam!

I live in Vancouver so have seen him play quite a bit for the Whitecaps now. Surprisingly he holds down a pretty regular spot for them at CB, as far as I know. I say surprisingly because they have actually spent a fair bit of money on their squad recently, so he plays alongside several players worth $2mil +. But that's the MLS all over, a few stars amongst a sea of mediocracy.

Still, he seems to be doing pretty well out here so good on him.

You are correct. We have a terrible record of loanees from Derby - Luke Thomas is about as good as it gets! Although, thinking about it, was James Bailey loaned from Derby? He was good.

I just think about Callum Ball and I get shivers.
