Yeah I think he did, however if I recall Todd blamed the club and Toppo in particular whilst Graham at least kept his jap shut and retired.

Funny really because Ella was a bit of a legend at BV in the same team and barely played due to injury.

But fair enough nobody could call Graham a massive success.

TBf if my if memory recalls we won the first 4 games beating a top Wigan side at home then mark Graham went back to nz and the season went down ,not sure what year is was ? 1986 ???

88-89 season

Even more disappointing than Hickey

now he was bad

Brent Todd bloody crap

Hickey has to be the worst import ever, shocking excuse of a player.

Saw Ray Price yesterday. Old fella walks like he is 90 years old. That body got put through the wringer over the years.

He walked like a ninety year old when he came onto the pitch for us, but when the whistle blew that was a different matter.

Ray price nickname "perpetual motion"

He used to be still getting up off the floor from a tackle, 3 plays later. Definitely the most unfit player that I've seen in a Wakey shirt.

My age allows me to put Geoff Gerrard on the list, different type of player but went on to the International stage after having spell at Wakefield. That wouldn't happen now.

I read an interview recently with Mark Graham. In it he said that Todd had a bad injury, knee I think and the club were going to "sack" Todd. As a result Graham stood up for him and they both left rather promptly.

Ella was fabulous for us, I remember his pre-match warm up stretches and by golly he was flexible. Didn't John Monie say of him that "he sold more dummies than Mothercare".
