I think the nearest he got was standing on Brighton beach with a seagull on his head.

Now is there a player who has played at the Goldstone, Withdean and The Amex?

There is at least one - Kevin Davies.

He played for Chesterfield at the Goldstone Ground on December 22 1995.

He played for Southampton at Withdean in the Worthington Cup on September 11 2001 (RIP Robert Eaton).

He played for Bolton, as a 60th-minute substitute, at the Amex on November 24 2012.

I can't be arsed to do the research but there are a number of 40+ goalkeepers still around as second or third choice in the league who may well have played at the Goldstone in their youth.

Although I think he retired at the end of last season, was Steve Harper in goal for Hartlepool for the Fans United game? He was on loan to them that season.

No BG he didn't. Paul Robison made 5 appearances in his debut season 1998/99 (and none at all the following season) which was 4 Premier League games and a League Cup fixture at Elland Road

Didn't David James also play in Graham Moseley's testimonial in April 1990 against Spurs as a guest goalie for us?

Incidentally, Ryan Giggs did NOT play against us in Sept 1992 in the league cup match that famously marked Beckham's debut.

He did in the match at OT though, I still remember El Pres's persistent chanting of "spotty virgin, spotty virgin" every time he got the ball

Did Roy Carroll play against us at the Goldstone? He was signed to both Hull and then Wigan in the 1996/97 season.

He is still playing for Linfield.

I reckon Jamie Cureton would have been the last. He was still playing in the football league last year but a wiki search shows him playing for Farnborough.

Just left Eastleigh today. The Martin Allen charm school working already.

Would make a great manager with his numerous contacts. Maybe something in the pipeline?
