Have we established that he’s actually passed away?

Did Towner play for the then Crawley or Lewes after us? Clutching at hazy memory straws.

So am I!!

That approx 83 - ?87 was a great time for County League football

Towner Played for Peacehaven as well I think.
Steve Piper was at Worthing then Littlehampton.
Tilts was at Littlehampton at the same time prior to Worthing
Ricky Sopp (Brighton) don’t think he played in the first team was also at Littlehampton.
The great Teddy Maybank played for Wick for a spell I think.
Sully also played can’t think where
Biz Russell also Brighton reserves was at Lewes

Martin Hinshelwood managed Littlehampton for about 8 weeks, prior to moving to Chelsea.

Bobby Stokes (76 cup final) for Soton, was at Chichester
Swindlehurst (Palace) was at Haywards Heath

Can’t think of any others…..

Edit - Dave Busby was at Littlehampton

Biz Russell and Steve Piper also played for Steyning.
Andy Rollings and Michael Ring also played CL.

Who do Andy Rollings play for? Great CB, an Albion favourite.

Peacehaven and Newhaven I think.

 

[Grassman]

My first memory of The Goldstone is standing on the chicken run and Gerry thundering down the wing….

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Mullery had options and we all saw them. Fell, Sully or Tony at the time who would you have gone for ?

 

[Blue3]

He was one of favourite players good old fashion winger quick and very direct rest in peace

Very sad RIP

My abiding memory of Gerry was the 3-2 vs Luton at home in 77/78, scored twice that night. ️

 

[Mancgull]

Was often a sub under Mullery. In the 76/77 season he scored a crucial winner at the Goldstone. Cant remember against whom but this was my memory of him.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Great memories of him sprinting up the wing in front of the West, similar to Bridges a few years earlier.
Cobbled a few commercial finance deals together in his Worthing offices in later years, great sense of humour.
Best wishes to Di.
