No, he never played a first team game. The same could be said about Karl Davies (remember him?!). What ever happened to him?


Its scary how much money we wasted in 2015/16 on players who never played a single or very few games. It be scary if someone compiled a list. Didn't we end up in the 40s for players in 2016?

To be fair Petersen never played a game.

Karl ‘The Lumberjack’ Davies played two pre-season games and was poor. Got injured against Leeds I think and retired.

Ferres and Green did a real bang up job didn't they? I heard Lowes was lumbered with players he didn't ask for or want which can't have helped. Despite those mitigating circumstances I still can't understand why he picked Baille at hooker for the crunch game.

When you see all those names listed like that it hits home how much s**t we brought in.
What an absolute crazy time it was.

Green was a conman and Ferres was completely clue less. Throw in the firecraker thay was Jimmy and it was the perfect recipe for disaster

2017 wasnt much better player wise but that was due to necessity of needing enough players to put a full team on the field.

You say that but we were a missed penalty goal and a contentious ball steal away from potentially winning that mpg. I can't blame them for throwing everything at one serious push for promotion. I get the feeling clubs are still doing that even now.
