Rushworth, Bobby and Lati like to get involved which I like, but I reckon the two I'd not want to cross would be Kitching and Bidwell. I bet Simms could handle himself too, but you'd really have to poke the bear.I think it's fair to say that because we've not been at the top table of football for 20+ years and given our trials and tribulations for most of this century we may be perceived as a bit of a soft touch down the years and haven't had the personal to mix it up and give as good as we got.
I dare say we've had plenty that can more than stand up for themselves and their team mates down the years and I don't doubt there's one or two of the current squad I certainly wouldn't give it the gob before being despatched none too politely.
We may be surprised at who you wouldn't want to cross on the pitch.
Is it how you earned your username?Met him on a night out once in Chichester when he was manager of Havant & Waterlooville.
Not the best story I've ever told.
Possibly the fantastically well fought 0-0 of 1996 which I think was also the occasion of Wright's deliberate knee into Oggy's face?Watched latest episode of the overlap and Liam Daish was mentioned by Ian Wright saying he went toe to toe with Martin Keown in the tunnel at Highbury when playing for us. Proper fight between the two of them. Good lad !
I’ve got a worse one m8
H&W used to play at Jubilee Park, at the end of the road my brother used to live on, Jubilee Road, Waterlooville.
Must have had a night off on the occasion of that League cup tie at Roker Park then when Gary Bennett nearly had him in the side paddock.Speedie could handle himself despite his size

Coldest for me was. Away Newcastle - no roof on the away end and it snowed - I was in a light work jacket and work shoes - struggled to hold the steering wheel and push the clutch on the way home - had been offered a ticket while I was up there on a day trip hence no winter kit - I think we lost 4-1 having gone aheadI went to the 0-0 in the cup, the Speedie incident is about the only thing of note that happened, but god it was freezing, one of the coldest games i remember going to.
