| Alan McCarthy 14:48 - Sep 23 with 1731 views | Boston | My son was chatting with his Uncle yesterday and asked if I remembered him? Defender, but I’m afraid that’s about it, didn’t make many appearances as far as I recall. |  |

| Alan McCarthy on 15:08 - Sep 23 with 1645 views | BrianMcCarthy | Solid player, played lots of reserve football from maybe 89-93 or 94. I remember he was highly rated and got England Yoof caps. Dark hair, maybe 6ft at a push, quite strong and a decent reader of the game but lacked top-level pace and aerial ability, I thought. Left us for Orient, I think. |  |

Two Lincolnshire sausages, mash, onion gravy and garden peas. For desert, you had apple crumble with custard. |  |

I watched a lot of youth and reserves football back then. Too much maybe! |  |

I thought maybe he was a distant relation! |  | |  |
| Alan McCarthy on 16:25 - Sep 23 with 1311 views | W7Ranger | I remember him. Was a back up centre back around 92-94. Pretty sure he played a handful of games. I recall he played away at Oldham in the 4-1 defeat, the one where Les scores a bullet free kick from literally 80 yards out! And I think McCarthy scored a very unlucky O.G.
