I seem to remember him playing 1 or 2 games but then doing something like his ACL or MCL. Could have been a great signing for us given his record in the Championship but like so many we have brought in over the years never lived up to the billing.

| Can anyone remember that young lad called Longstaff? He was supposed to be the next superstar but just seemed to fade away.

If he did play it could only have been a preseason friendly.

Welsh lad I think although I might have him mixed up with someone else but think he got in to coaching and there was an interesting article about him as he had some struggles. I will add it if I can find it.
Edit: maybe it were someone else as I can't seem to find the article online.
It was bugging me but turns out it was Matthew Silva - https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/rug ... e-19959622

I can even remember his photo in the Courier, ...... smiling as he was signing the contract! Can't remember if he actually played, but there was much flag waving and drum beating as we beat some rival big clubs for his signature.
Mark Roberts cost us £20k from Warrington but injury meant he never (or hardly) played, and shortly after signing Alan Maskill from York (I think) he tragically died in a car accident.

| Simon Longstaff played in the late 80's but I don't think he made more than 20 appearances for us. He was from the Wakefield area and went to Oldham but became a javelin thrower I believe.

Did a bit of Faxcarring and according to Marillion man-a well known poster in the day-Longstaff signed a record 50k junior contract in 1986.His son Ellis broke onto the scene last season scoring a hat-rick at magic for Hull on loan from Warrington and earned a Knights call-up.His career also nosedived quickly as he's now at Fev..

Did you "trawl" or "remember / search" because I only "trawl" apparently.
Always good to get the facts right.
